From inside cover:
Mention Art Deco and you evoke the glamour of Hollywood between the wars, of luxury ocean liners and the Orient Express. Taking its name from the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925, Art Deco was a new style celebrating a new era.
Many of Art Deco's greatest practitioners worked in several media, to produce exuberant buildings and seductive Art Deco interiors. Frank Lloyd Wright, Ely Jacques Kahn and Sir Giles Gilbert Scott were just a few of the architects who produced new and bold Art Deco designs. Art Deco shows the influence of the Bauhaus, neoclassicism, Cubism, Futurism and other artistic movements, and its influence on the International Style that supplanted it after World War II is also explained:
This book illustrates the dazzling variety of work, from Clarice Cliff's bold ceramics to Paul Manship's elegantly sculpted interpretations of classical mythology, from the brittle brilliance of Erte's designs to the jazz-age glitter of William Van Alen's Chrysler Building, produced in the heyday of Art Deco.
