The Art Nouveau movement became an international phenomenon at the
beginning of the twentieth century that ushered in the era of
modernity in almost every aspect of cultural life. For decades
critics have argued that Art Nouveau was not an artistic period in
its own right, but an amalgam of artists and styles that served as
a bridge between neoclassicism and modernism. In this
comprehensive, authoritative and copiously illustrated book, art
historian Norbert Wolf explores Art Nouveau as a logical outgrowth
of the historic forces in which it arose. This book focuses on the
movement's wide variety of applications and reclaims its prominence
in the pantheon of modern art history. Chapters on aesthetics,
spirituality and the cult of beauty offer luminous examples of
works by Mucha, Gaudi, Hoffmann, Klimt, Horta, Munch and Tiffany,
among many others. Wolf's text is both informed and accessible,
providing an exciting narrative that brings the Art Nouveau
movement into clear focus. Beautifully produced to appeal to a wide
range of readers, this new edition gives one of the world's most
popular styles the serious consideration it deserves.
