Art Deco

1920's to 1930's

Art Deco is an elegant style of decorative art and especially architecture, similar in some regards to the earlier Art Nouveau style, but with a more Modernist esthetic. The name came from the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs Industriels et Modernes, held in Paris, which celebrated living in the modern world. The Art Deco style is characterized by precise and boldly delineated geometric motifs, shapes, and strong colors, reminiscent of the Precisionist art movement, which developed at about the same time. Well-known artists within the Art Deco movement included Tamara de Lempicka, and fashion illustrator Erté.
