Through the first thoroughly annotated examination of books,
articles, exhibition catalogs, and unpublished dissertations, the
Art Nouveau period (1890-1905) is revealed as an era dedicated to
design reform in all areas of the visual arts. An introductory
essay examines the central issues addressed in the literature of
the era: the unification of the arts, the necessity for change, the
diversion from historical sources, and the importance of providing
new directions with new materials. This opening essay presents the
ways in which the bibliography is organized. Architecture, interior
decoration, furniture, jewelry, bookbinding, posters, ceramics,
glass, wallpaper, and textiles, are the subjects of critical
documentation; annotated bibliographic entries provide evidence for
the spread of design changes in France, Belgium, England, and the
United States. These annotated entries are drawn from substantial
literature of the actual period under investigation; later
publications (until 1996) demonstrate the changes in ways in which
the Art Nouveau period has been studied. The entries provide a
chronological dimension to the critical literature, they also
demonstrate the ways in which certain artists or issues have been
studied at given moments in time.
