Art Nouveau Architecture

By request from Laura (lamartineta) Art Nouveau Is an international movement and style of art, architecture and applied art—especially the decorative arts—that peaked in popularity at the turn of the 20th century (18901905). The name ‘Art nouveau’ is French for ‘new art’. It is also known as Jugendstil, German for ‘youth style’, named after the magazine Jugend, which promoted it, and in Italy, Stile Liberty from the department store in London, Liberty & Co., which popularized the style. A reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it is characterized by organic, especially floral and other plant-inspired motifs, as well as highly-stylized, flowing curvilinear forms. Art Nouveau is an approach to design according to which artists should work on everything from architecture to furniture, making art part of everyday life. Art Nouveau buildings often have asymmetrical shapes, arches and decorative surfaces with curved, plant-like designs.

    Art Nouveau was predominantly an urban style, created to decorate the streets and interiors of modern industrial cities, which had expanded…Although each city developed its own version of the style, all shared similar ideas and goals.

    its symbolic use of myth and religion played a part in the development and formulation of the New Art style. a decorative style distinguished by flowing lines and asymmetrical design inspired by the forms and love of nature…

    I bacame to be hope going to Europe, furthermore than before watching this so lovely.
    I am a little surprised because the people in there have lived while look these magnificent architecture. They look like a part of the life on the area.
    I suppose, since the architects have be respected, could take part in worldly activities what have be closed on our life. Now I noticed the reason. The buildings reflect religious, tradition,like majesties…
    By the way, can we stay without reserving?
