After an accident at the age of eighteen in which he lost his right arm, Carlu turned to graphic design. His early work reveals a fascination with the angular forms and spatial nuances of Cubism. As his work evolved over the decades, it continued to show an affinity with geometric shapes. Carlu sought to create a symbolic language in which colors, lines, and content would depict emotional values. As a result his oeuvre achieved a distinctive, streamlined simplicity of form, rarely incorporating narrative or illustrative elements. Carlu spent the years of World War II in the United States, where he executed a number of important patriotic designs for the government's poster publications.
