| | Art Deco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Art Deco (French: Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes) was an early twentieth century movement in the decorative arts, that also grew in influence to affect architecture, fashion and the visual arts. | | | Art Deco was an opulent style and this opulence is attributed as a reaction to the forced austerity during the years of World War I. Art Deco was a popular style for interiors of cinema theatres and ocean liners such as the Ile de France and Normandie. | | | Art Deco did not originate with the Exposition; it was a major style in Europe from the early 1920s, though it did not catch on in the U.S. until about 1928, when it quickly modulated into the Streamline Moderne during the 1930s, the decade with which Americanized Art Deco is most strongly associated today. |

| | 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. | | | Although it was similar in context and emphasis to the decorative style of "art nouveau," a stronger connection to modernism distinguished art deco. | | | Art deco also tried to hint at other art forms, like jazz and swing music and the dance fashions of the era. |

| | The earliest forms of Art Deco do exhibit a slight reminder of the previous Art Nouveau movement’s graceful nature motifs, while in later years geometry and mass take over to create what is sometimes referred to as Art Moderne or Streamline. | | | These structures were Kalamazoo’s final incarnations of Art Deco, hinting at things to come in the later 1950s and beyond, while retaining the geometry, mass, and even a little ornament characteristic of earlier Art Deco. | | | By 1950 Art Deco style remained in the minds of area designers but was beginning to fade. |

| | The term Art Deco came into common usage in the 1980s as public interest in the style was renewed and is generally used to cover several distinct periods. | | | This was classical Art Deco, as first popularized at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925, featuring expensive materials, angular yet voluptuous with elaborate motifs of fountains, nudes and flora. | | | In the United States, Art Deco was a product of new ideas and movements and found its inspirations in many distinct early 20th Century European design styles such as Cubism, French Art Deco, German Bauhaus and Expressionism, Dutch de Stijl and Amsterdam School, Vienna Secession and others. |

| | Whether using angles or curves, Art Deco artists did like to mass-produce their art in the same way factories mass-produced their products, eschewing the one-of-a-kind ethos of Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts artists. | | | They declare the movement was born in 1925, the year of the Paris Exhibition of Decorative and Industrial Arts (hence the shortened phrase, "Art Deco"). | | | With caveats such as these, Louise finally does struggle for a definition, comparing Art Deco, which had its heyday between the two World Wars, to the other "Art" style that is often confused with it. |
