Art Nouveau (1890-1914)
Art Nouveau • Created an international style based on decoration
• Combined old customs, habits, and artistic styles with new, using a wide range of contradictory images and ideas.
• Paired new technologies and lifestyles with an embrace of the spirit world, fantasy, and myth.
• Explored the idea that humankind was no longer above nature, but inextricably part of it; led to the wide use of the theme of metamorphosis, or the fusion of human, animal, and plant forms.
• Responded to the Industrial Revolution (as urban life as we now understand it was established)
Art Nouveau designers believed that all the arts
should work in harmony to create a "total work of art," or Gesamtkunstwerk: buildings, furniture, textiles, clothes, and
jewelry all conformed to the principles of Art Nouveau.
