A must-have for Deco enthusiasts, and for painters,
By david lincoln brooks (boerne, tx United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Art Deco Painting (Paperback)
I just adore this book, and it never fails to inspire me. This book is of particular interest to those who have already been fans of the Art Deco style-- both in its European and American manifestations-- for many years. Why? Because many survey books on Deco tend to include many of the same, familiar images of posters-- the Cassandre prints (albeit fabulous), etc. But this book is full of images which were utterly "new" to me-- perhaps only 3 or 4 did I recognize: some Sheeler, Stuart Davis, O'Keeffe. Lucie-Smith's essays are well-informed, too. If you love the extraordinarily sophisticated, cool, eclectic, clean look of Deco (which, IMHO, has never been surpassed for pure economy and chic-ness) then snap this book up. It will be worth its weight in gold to you alone, if it "turns you onto" the artwork of unsung British portraitist Meredith Frampton!
5.0 out of 5 stars
