Review
The late nineteenth century was a period of intense creativity and great invention in many fields. The electric light, the telephone, skyscrapers, movies, the Eiffel Tower, and Sigmund Freud s the Interpretation of Dreams all have roots in this era. In the midst of this activity, the term art nouveau appeared in print for the first time in a Brussels newspaper. The year was 1884 and the new name caught on, capturing the essence of an international movement in art and design that spanned multiple creative disciplines for nearly two decades Annie Buckley"
It is their combination of artistic innovation alongside creative reused/rethinking of Art Nouveau s subject matter that distinguishes these contemporary artists from the past; they go well beyond appropriation or imitation to redefinition and even liberation. Joanna Roche"
