Bernat Klein

Abstract

• Bernat Klein had a visionary career spanning four decades, from the 1950s until his retirement in 1992. Based in the Scottish Borders, his radical use of colour blending and texture – inspired by the Scottish Borders landscape – transformed haute couture, home-made fashions and interior design. Lisa Mason will discuss Bernat’s career and highlight key pieces within his extensive archive which is held by National Museums Scotland.
