Rene Lalique: Selections from the Steven and Roslyn Shulman
Collection introduces the artistic innovations and legacy of
renowned French Art Deco artist Rene Lalique. Born outside of Paris
in 1860, Lalique was recognized as one of France's foremost Art
Nouveau jewelry designers before turning to the material of glass
in the early twentieth century. By the 1920s, Lalique's glass
artwork embraced the new ideas and technologies that swept the
United States and Europe. He brought an artistic aesthetic to new
industries such as automotive and electrical products, as well as
to new clienteles including the rising middle class and the
increasingly independent female consumer. His legacy has influenced
subsequent generations of designers and artists, in particular
contemporary artists working in the medium of glass. Lalique's
considerable imagination and eye for design is evident in the
Steven and Roslyn Shulman Collection, one of the most comprehensive
selections of Lalique glass in the United States. The collection
features perfume bottles, vases, automobile mascots, and a wealth
of other objects that exemplify the Art Deco style and celebrate
Lalique's sense of design.
