    Art Nouveau was an ornamental style of art that flourished between 1890 and 1914. It sought to create a new style free of historicism. Inspired by nature and Japanese art, it used flowing, asymmetrical lines and incorporated plant and sea motifs. Art Nouveau embraced architecture, furniture, glassware, jewelry, painting and more with characteristic features including curved forms, stained glass, and organic embellishments. The style was eventually replaced by the clean lines of Art Deco in the 1920s-1930s.

    Art Nouveau
    Means New Art

    Ornamental style of art that flourished between about 1890 and 1914
    throughout Europe and the United States.

    It was a deliberate attempt to create a new style, free of the imitative


    historicism that dominated much of 19th-century art and design.

    Art Nouveau developed first in England and soon spread to the


    European continent

    Jugendstil in Germany
    Arte Joven, in Spain

    Stile Liberty, in Italy
    Siegfried Bing
    German naturalized French in
    1876, Siegfried Bing (later
    called Samuel Bing)

    was the founder in 1895 of " La


    Maison de l'Art Nouveau " in
    Paris :

    it was his art gallery and


    exhibition hall that gave its
    name to the famous artistic
    Style Art Nouveau.
    Art Nouveau was aimed at modernizing design,
    seeking to escape the eclectic historical styles
    that had previously been popular.

    The movement was committed to abolishing the


    traditional hierarchy of the arts, which viewed so-
    called liberal arts, such as painting and
    sculpture, as superior to craft-based decorative
    arts.

    The practitioners of Art Nouveau sought to revive


    good workmanship, raise the status of craft, and
    produce genuinely modern design.

    Characteristics
    Moved away from imitation of real subjects and moved
    towards flowing and twisting lines of nature

    Inspired by the lines and shapes of nature

    united flowing, natural forms with more angular contours

    Art Nouveau designers also believed that all the arts should
    work in harmony to create a "total work of art

    Art Nouveau was a short-lived movement whose brief


    incandescence was a precursor of modernism, which
    emphasized function over form and the elimination of
    superfluous ornament.
    Art Nouveau embracedall forms of art and
    design:

    architecture

    between four designs
    In his book Sources of Art Nouveau, he
    describes for styles:
    1. An abstract, structural style with a strong symbolic
    and dynamic tendency (France & Belgium)

    2. A floral approach focuding on
    organic plant forms

    Fall of Art Nouveau & Birth of Art
    Deco

    When Art Nouveau fell out of fashion in


    the 1920s and 1930s, it was replaced
    by the clean, simple geometries of Art
    Deco.
    The extravagant curves of Art Nouveau
    were seen as old-fashioned and viewed
    with contempt.
    Many Art Nouveau products were
    put away, spurned, or
    destroyed.

    Rooms once decorated in what had


    been the height of fashion were
    redecorated to conform to the
    latest taste.
