ART NOUVEAU Style

ART NOUVEAU


蜻蜓翅膀、鳶尾花瓣、舞動藤蔓、綺羅粉黛、人魚尾鰭……,各 種自然圖騰以象徵手法,隨著流動曲折的線條,延展出一個個極具動態美感的藝術珍品,這就是 新藝術風格。新藝術是二十世紀最龐大的一場設計運動,也是自然元素、異國風情與想像力的雜揉。相較於工廠大量生產的規格化商品,新藝術珍品所呈現的是一種 自然動感與無比的生命力。


A reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it is characterized by organic, especially floral and other plant-inspired motifs, as well as highly-stylized, flowing curvilinear forms. Art Nouveau is an approach to design according to which artists should work on everything from architecture to furniture, making art part of everyday life.
