A burst of creative energy in the fields of architecture, design,
and fashion characterized the years between the two World Wars.
Shaping new styles of buildings and furnishings, redefining
contemporary dress, and giving visual form to avant-garde
performing arts, architects and designers forged a
still-influential modern aesthetic. The era's most creative figures
rarely worked in isolation, preferring instead to participate in
international dialogues that crossed national boundaries and linked
capital cities in collaborative artistic enterprise.
No two cities engaged in a more fertile conversation than Paris and
New York. The interchange between them was never simple, however,
comprising in equal measure admiration and envy, respect and
rivalry, as artists and designers in each city interpreted and
incorporated principles of Art Deco, Cubism, the International
Style, Neo-Romanticism, and Surrealism into their own practices.
