Published annually from 1906 until 1980, Decorative Art, The Studio
Yearbook was dedicated to the latest currents in architecture,
interiors, furniture, lighting, glassware, textiles, metalware, and
ceramics. Since the publications went out of print, the now
hard-to-find yearbooks have become highly prized by collectors and
dealers. Decorative Art 1960s looks at the birth of pop in a decade
of unprecedented social, sexual, and political change. All the
restless energies bubbling throughout the world during the 1960s
made their way into the design style of the decade. Liberation was
in the air, men were rushing to the moon, and the sky was the limit
as far as visual creativity was concerned. The concept of lifestyle
really came into its own, and although the early years of the
decade still saw a rivalry between the well-crafted object and the
industrially manufactured, by its end both ethnic and pop
iconography had gained equal foothold in the aesthetic. Light was
also predominant in shaping interiors. Freedom of choice and
personal expression were the buzzwords for the young consumer, and
so the likes of Panton, Sottsass, Paolozzi, Parisi, Sarpaneva, and
Lomazzi did what they could to oblige.
