Art Deco

The term Art deco was coined during the 1960’s for an art movement
which spanned the roaring 20s and the depression of the 1930’s.
Starting in Paris in 1920 the style influenced Arts, Craft, Architecture
as well as Fashion and interior design.
Art Deco is an elegant style of decorative art and
architecture reflective of Art Nouveau, yet with more modern
sophistication. Art Deco features sleek straight lines and an element of
boldness.
The art work is a mixture of smooth lines and bold colours
with a luxury and attention to detail in the architecture.
You will be expected to carry out research and create art work using the
Art Deco styles.
