Back to Art Deco

Art Deco crystallised in Paris during the 1920s and spread rapidly across architecture, fashion, graphic design, and the decorative arts. The style drew on geometric abstraction, machine-age optimism, and luxury craftsmanship in equal measure. Its visual language, sharp angles, stepped forms, sunburst motifs, and streamlined curves, appeared on everything…

Works of Art Deco are held in 26 museums worldwide, including Poster Section, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Musée National d'Art Moderne.
