ART NOUVEAU TO POST MODERN
ART NOUVEAU_____________________________________________________________________________________________
_
1890 - 1914
- Starting in the turn of the 20th century Art Nouveau was the first conscious attempt to develop a non-historical style of art and architecture
- Considered the ‘anti-movement’ of historical style, Art Nouveau flourished in France and Belgium but never succeeded as a permanent style in design
- Designers associated with the movement are Gaillard, Van de Velde, Gaudi, Mackintosh and Tiffany
- It emcompassed architecture, decorative arts, graphic design, painting, sculpture and is characterised by various stylistic features which vary according to region

BAUHAUS_____________________________________________________________________________________________
_
- Began life in 1919
- Founded by Walter Gropius from the Werkbund movement, which sought to integrate art and economics, and to add an element of engineering art
- Combining the Weimar Art Academy, and the Weimar Arts and Crafts School
- Born into a world between wars, yet its influence still manifestly at work today
- Questions that were raised and still being asked with the same urgency:
•About how art and craft should be taught
•About the nature of good design
•About the effects buildings have on the people who live in them

MODERNISM_____________________________________________________________________________________________
_
1914 - 1939
- The theory of modern design was deliberately simple as a response to the growing complexity of the world
- Modernist objects look very different to those that came immediately before them
- They have no ornament and no overt reference to historical style
- They tend to emphasize materials and processes to create objects with integrity that simplified and dramatized everyday life

POST MODERNISM_____________________________________________________________________________________________
_
1970 - 2000
-Originally meaning ‘later than modern’, the word “Post Modern” has been subject to many interpretations
- The term has at its heart a distrust of modernist theories and approaches to design as being impoverished in terms of visual language and restrictive in terms of meaning

MEMPHIS - 1980
- In 1980, the Memphis Group led by Ettore Sottsass rejected the principle of functional design and the rules of good taste, which was the cornerstone of the Modernism period
- They regarded design as being fashion, with outrageous styles appearing for a season then disappearing just as quickly
