A book reviewer once described Arnold Schwartzman as “a
trufflehound with a Nikon”, praising his passion and inquisitive
eye. In Miami Art Deco, Schwartzman's sixth
photographic book on Art Deco architecture, he turns his lens on
the tropical sun-bleached facades of Miami Beach’s pastel
palaces. Following the devastating Miami hurricane of 1926, a
square-mile of Miami Beach was redeveloped in the 1920s, 30s and
40s and the Miami Beach Architectural Historic District (known as
the Art Deco area) now encompasses over eight hundred buildings and
is the largest concentration of art deco architecture in the
world. Schwartzman's stunning photography captures many of
these unique buildings, from the hotels and nightclubs of Ocean
Drive to the Miami Post Office, all heavily influenced by the
sea and nautical life. This book of Deco delights should prove to
be a delicious sundowner for the connoisseur of the Art Deco style.
