From the jacket--The eclectic, international style now known as Art Deco originally took its name from the 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes. The impact that the exhibition had on design in the twenties and thirties is celebrated here with a stunning pictorial guide to its creative legacy. [This book] aims to clarify the distinctive use of motif--floral, figurative, and geometric--during this extended period. It illustrates both these and other themes of the Art Deco movement. [...] An invaluable reference for collectors, designers, and artists alike, the Art Deco Source Book provides a unique interpretation of the Art Deco contribution to twentieth century art and design.
