La red couverte des archives de Ren Gabriel (1899-1950) la biblioth que de l' cole nationale sup rieure des arts d coratifs a permis d' clairer sous un jour nouveau l'oeuvre de ce d corateur, figure marquante du modernisme social et des ann es de reconstruction. Ren Gabriel conna t ses premiers succ s en dessinant et produisant, jeune tudiant, ses propres papiers peints. Cr ateur de meubles, il re oit 23 ans la bourse Blumenthal et participe en 1925 l'Exposition internationale des arts d coratifs et industriels, aux c t s de Francis Jourdain et des modernistes. Illustrateur, il est galement d corateur de th tre et sc nographe, notamment pour ses amis L on Chancerel et Louis Jouvet. En retrait des grandes figures des ann es 20, Ren Gabriel se distingue de ses contemporains par son rejet du luxe et de l'ostentation. Poursuivant son travail d'artiste et de d corateur, qui l'am ne collaborer avec des maisons prestigieuses - Nobilis, Leroy, Follot -, il joue un r le d terminant dans le design de la reconstruction : il dessine notamment des centaines de mod les pour les sinistr s et se rapproche d'Auguste Perret pour la reconstruction du Havre. 0 g.
