Culturally Curious Art Lecture Series: The Swirling World of Art Nouveau

Nov. 12: The Swirling World of Art Nouveau
Have you ever been captivated by the sinuous curves and organic forms of Art Nouveau? This enchanting artistic movement, which flourished from the 1890s to the 1910s, revolutionized visual arts and architecture with its emphasis on natural shapes, flowing lines, and decorative elegance. At the forefront of this style was Alphonse
Mucha, a Czech artist whose iconic posters and illustrations epitomized the grace and beauty of Art Nouveau. This program explores the key characteristics of Art Nouveau and delves into Mucha’s masterful works, uncovering how his distinctive style influenced not only graphic design but also the architecture and interior decor of the era.
