Extractions: Art Deco South Beach by Steven Allan The historic "art deco" district of South Beach, in Miami, Florida, is arguably one of the most successful urban restoration projects in the history of American architecture. Hundreds of buildings have been restored to their early 20th-century appearance. South Beach was at the heart of an economic boom in the "Roaring Twenties," when rich families looked for a new way to spend their money on holiday destinations. They embraced "modern" architecture with the same passion as they did modern technologies such as automobiles and radios. To accommodate these visitors, Miami built a compact neighborhood in a style described as linking modernism and consumerism. The art deco movement drew inspiration from the modern art movements, particularly the concept of multiple points of view of cubism, and the themes of machines and motion in futurism. Art deco also tried to hint at other art forms, like jazz and swing music and the dance fashions of the era. Although it was similar in context and emphasis to the decorative style of " art nouveau ," a stronger connection to modernism distinguished art deco. Unlike art nouveau, it emphasized a functional design based on logic and geometry.

Guarantees are given on quality and description of all items in stock. The site is being maintained on weekly basis. A rditi-Art is a one-man business with a nice shop in the center of Amsterdam. The shop is located on the Spiegelgracht 19, where I share an antique-shop with three other specialists. My heart goes out to the French and Belgium Art Nouveau with the typical curvilinear lines, whiplashes and stylized plant elements. M etal, especially pewter, seems to be the most suitable material to give these elements shape. The emphasis of the collection is on pewter. Also the porcelain companies from Austria, especially Teplitz, such as "Amphora" and "Ernst Wahliss" have a special place in my collection. Nevertheless, there is also space for Arts and Crafts, Art Deco and other Art Nouveau items. I hope you will enjoy the collection and get the same satisfaction from it, which I have for years now.

Hunebelle - Art Deco French Glass art nouveau to art DecoThe art of Glass by Victor Arwas. Papadakis,1996 A Guide to Affordable Antiques and Collectables in Australia by John Batterbee and http://www.glass.co.nz/hunebelle.htm
Extractions: Above: Hunebelle bowl with opalescent, clear and frosted segments Hunebelle - Art Deco French Glass Author: Joanne Smith. Editor: Angela Bowey Andre Hunebelle was born in Paris in 1896. He studied Mathematics at the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, but these studies were interrupted by his involvement in the First World War. After the war, Hunebelle began designing pressed glass inspired by the work of Rene Lalique. He was friendly with Lalique's son . In 1927 Hunebelle exhibited his first collection of glass, which rapidly became fashionable and brought him popular acclaim. Although similar to Lalique's glass in many respects, Hunebelle's work maintained a unique identity and style. He was influenced greatly by his love of Mathematics and the prevailing fashion for what we now call Art Deco. The decoration of his designs was often very stylised or abstract and frequently used contrasting planes of glossy and frosted glass. Above: Hunebelle vase Andre Hunebelle created a range of vases, bowls, plates, ornaments and lamps and opened a luxury shop in Paris. (the address of which is variously quoted as being at the rue de la Boetie, Avenue Victor Emmanuel-III and the Champs Elysees) Etienne Franckhauser who also made moulds for Lalique and Sabino made the moulds for Hunebelle's glass.

Extractions: document.write(''); ArtLex: Art Nouveau Art Nouveau The exuberant fin de siècle style is celebrated in a sweeping exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in Washington As the 20th century neared, more than a hundred years ago, artists andintellectuals and merchants throughout Europe and in the United States tried to whip art into new shapes so it could keep pace with the ever-changing modern world. This frenzy to throw off the stultifying past excited artists and craftspeople, dealers and shopkeepers. Since they believed they were creating everything anew, their style is best known today as Art Nouveau, French for "new art." In April, London's Victoria and Albert Museum opened the largestexhibition of Art Nouveau ever assembled. The show, expanded even more,comes to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. on October 8, 2000. The exhibition examines the number of cities that emerged as busy workshops for the new creativity, and the artists whose names have become synonymous with it: French architect Hector Guimard, Czech-born illustrator Alphonse Mucha, Belgian architect Victor Horta and American glassmaker Louis Comfort Tiffany. The whiplash curves and exotic women that often characterized Art Nouveau works eventually fell out of fashion, and by 1914 the style was moribund. All in all, Art Nouveau was simply not modern enough. But no matter where it stands in art history, Art Nouveau a hundred years later strikes us as pleasing, often refreshing, sometimes worthy of awe and always kind of fun.
Modern Art Of Metallwork From art deco to art nouveau dinanderie. When technical evolution go with During art nouveau and art deco period there was a great revival in french http://www.broehan-museum.de/metallw8.htm
Extractions: Conservator, Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris During art nouveau and art deco period there was a great revival in french dinanderie. In 1902 Lucien Bonvallet, who is well known as the main reformer of art nouveau dinanderie, displayed for the first time many objects in copper repoussé work in the Salon of Society of Fine Arts. In 1913 Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris devoted a one man exhibition to him. If Lucien Bonvallet was a very influential pioneer at this period he was very quickly followed by others majors artists such as Henri Husson or Jean Dunand. He was also the one who introduced a type of objects: vases always constructed with a hammer and with naturalistic décoration. He was the first to use pure copper alone worked with a hammer. After having constructed the vase with a hammer he beats the metal from inside, so the decoration appeared in relief outside. This technique was used by many art nouveau dinandiers: Lucien Bonvallet but also Capon brothers, Mathieu Gallerey or Jean Dunand. If Bonvallet is hailed as the father of modern dinanderie, Henri Husson, the other important dinandier of the period was inspired by symbolist aesthetic; Saint John the Baptist plate in1909, bat vase in 1909, bat plate in 1905. Also in hammered copper his pieces were made in different ways: in repoussé, in pouring or inlaying copper in silver. If Husson shares his contemporaries the love of nature he was the only one to realise Des Esseintes passion for sickly plants. He worked copper and silver like a skin and his techniques were less simple than those of Bonvallet or Scheidecker. If Bonvallet was a virtuoso in copper repoussé work, Scheidecker was a virtuoso in the cutting of copper.

The Art Deco style, with itâs flare, extravagance and risque attitude is the basis upon which modern design is rooted. The design concepts include not only, clothing, home furnishing, architecture, jewelry, packaging design, commercial design and cars, more importantly whole new social sensibility and state of mind. The Art Deco movement had a brief but profound impact on the world of design and things were never the same again. Art Deco can be defined by the catch phrase "Anything Goes". These few words capture beautifully the spirit of Art Deco and refers to the new bold designs between the two World Wars. It was in stark contrast to, and a rebellion against, the over-done Victorian and Art Nouveau design concepts, with flowery, swirling lines, and busy decorations.
Extractions: Main When I went out the NYBC ( www.bikher.org ) back in May, I got a lot of help from Associate Director Catherine Madsen who dashed all over the building fetching likely image-able posters, boxes of type, and books. She connected me with the Collections Manager, Aaron Rubinstein, and we agreed that I would come back in August, after he had come back from the Columbia U/YIVO Yiddish institute, and do a round of imaging of "interesting book covers." Aaron was great, and he had a huge pile of books to photograph. Catherine also took me down to the basement where I started out photographing boxes of old wooden type. (I have yet to meet anyone at the NYBC, at any level, starting with Aaron Lansky, who hasn't been exceptionally pleasant. The KlezmerShack and this blog will be sponsoring a talk by Lansky at the Newton Jewish Community Center this coming season.) I subjected both of them to a long ramble about some of my recent research, but they were polite and listened.
