Description
This beautifully illustrated book is a celebration of Art Deco expression through graphics and illustration. Divided into three sections – movement, its fashion, and advertising – the reader gains an excellent insight into the artists and innovators who helped popularize the Art Deco movement, such as Georges Barbier, Erté, Cassandre, and Paul Colin. Although the main focus of this intriguing book is on graphics, numerous examples of other Art Deco forms are also presented. Among posters and images, sculptures, art objects, and jewelry highlight their similarities, whether through line, shape, or theme. These echoes serve to showcase the creative fertility of this period, when styles and ideas traversed artistic media.
