What is Art Deco? Where did it come from? And how useful is the concept of style today? Join ADSNY for this delightful video event where author and educator Michael Windover explores these fundamental questions.
This recorded video presentation––which you can enjoy from the comfort of your own home at a time that best fits your schedule––is a great introduction for those new to Art Deco as well as an in-depth refresher for those with preexisting knowledge of the style.
The often broad definition of the term Art Deco––referring to a huge range of sources and cutting across medium and class lines––can sometimes hinder historical investigations. In this thought-provoking event, Michael Windover will explore whether these challenges outweigh the benefits the style moniker offers.
Get your ticket today for this web-based talk that will consider these issues as we review the history of the term Art Deco and the meaning of style as we make sense of our past.
This recorded video event includes the original PowerPoint––with wonderful images that you will be able to see directly on your computer screen, tablet, or mobile device.
Michael Windover is Associate Professor and Head of Art & Architectural History at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. He is author of Art Deco: A Mode of Mobility (2012) and co-editor with Bridget Elliott of The Routledge Companion to Art Deco (2019).
