Results - Art Deco
Art Deco, which flourished in the 1920s and 1930s, is a style more associated with the decorative arts than fine art. At its peak, the style was referred to as 'art moderne', or simply 'modernistic'. The term 'Art Deco' was adopted in the mid-1960s, when the style was re-evaluated. Characterised by sleek, stylised form, simplicity of line, geometric patterns, abstract shapes and sweeping curves, the style lent itself perfectly to modern poster design.
