E. Klem

ByKaren Posted on Updated on Art Gallery

~ 1901 - 1985 

Eugene Klementieff (Evgenii Klementiev) was a Russian painter and illustrator who grew up in St Petersburg. He moved to Paris early in 1930. He was a famous artist, designer, and illustrator who used the signature E.Klem, or just E.K. Sometimes he did not use a signature for his erotic works.
Besides illustrating for the magazine La Vie Parisienne (starting 1934), he also produced paintings. He created etchings. He took part in group exhibitions. After 1934 he was commissioned by various clandestine publishers, in special the publisher and bookshop Librairier d'Antin. This bookshop offered a lot of corporal punishment books and art, Klementieff illustrated at least three Antin titles in this genre. He also illustrated books written by Jim Galding.

Art from E. Klem shows resemblance to art from Mario Labocetta and Wighead I recommend you visit these pages as well.
