Nearly five years ago, we blogged about an exhibition on WWI ship camouflage at the
National Maritime Museum in Brest, France. I posted twice about the event (
here and
here), which opened in October 1917 and continued through December 1918. Titled
Razzle Dazzle: L’art contre-attaque!, the installation was designed by the French design firm,
Collectif XYZ.
I have recently been notified by the museum’s director,
Jean-Yves Besselièvre, that a video about the exhibition is now
available online at this link. Reproduced here above and below on this blog page are several screen grabs from the video, including some of the ship models and the dazzle-painted building that houses the design firm.
