Book excerpt: The Art Deco movement - with its emphasis on up-to-date individuality combined with good taste, fine materials and exquisite workmanship - became all the rage in France. Other countries produced their own versions of the style, but in furniture especially, the French predominated: the world had not seen such creative design for 125 years; on the one hand, the virtuoso cabinet-making of Ruhlmann, on the other, the brilliant originality of Gray and Legrain. Alastair Duncan introduces us to the work of over eighty architects, furniture makers and interior designers. The colour and monochrome photographs - almost all of them specially commissioned for this book - form a valuable portfolio of Art Deco furniture which should be of special value to those seeking comprehensive information about a design movement which has proved of lasting appeal both to collectors and to the general public.

Download or read book Christie s Art Nouveau written by Fiona Gallagher and published by Pavilion Books, Limited. This book was released on 2002 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christie's Art Nouveau is the story of an artistic movement that thrived at the turn of the century, and whose name derived from the vision of one man, Siegfried Bing. The boundary-shattering wares that he displayed in his Paris shop after a visit to Japan, flowing, curvilinear abstract lines with pale, elegant colours - stunned contemporary critics and provided the focus for a whole generation of applied artists. The highly individualistic styles, from the sinuous and vibrant designs of van de Velde to the more abstract idioms advocated by Rennie Mackintosh, are all detailed. Each chapter concentrates on one particular discipline within the movement, whether it be on the iridescent glassware of Lalique and Tiffany or the stirring graphic design of Toulouse-Lautrec. Illustrated with images from Christie's archives, Christie's Art Nouveau brings across exactly how important the movement was in throwing off the shackles of the past for artists, architects and designers alike and how it was a period that witnessed great beauty, startling originality and clearness of vision. This is a book for art-lovers, historians and collectors and enthusiasts of an art movement that changed the fac
