art nouveaux

Art Nouveau

Armond Hoffman, if you design negative space everything will work.

Alfose Mucha- He produced many paintings, illustrations, advertisements, postcards, and designs.
Didn't finish Sara Bernhardt's poster so it is less saturated at the bottom of it.


JOB ~ Alphonse Mucha - Poster for the cigarette brand job.

Decorative pattern became popular. Organic.

Art journals/manifestos

flat panels of color, but dimensional figures, abstraction

Bradley was most popular in America, egotistical.

Difference between cover and depiction of cover

Abstraction rather than actual product. Flat panels of color.

Begins in France,
germany- called jvgend stijl.

Peter Behrens - inspired french art nouveaux

Circles and squares. geometry inception
first comprehensive system
logo, typeface, consistency


Scotland - Glasgow school-art movement
"The Four"
Charles Rene Mcintosh
work is defined by rectangular structure, interior-curved elements, spirituality, metaphysical
feminine motifs

Talwin Morris-makes pragmatic designs with rectangular structure and curved elements



Gustav Klimt-Vienna Secession


David Carson-grunge typography

Artists question and confront older generations

Always ask why does it look this way?

Final Thoughts:

I don't know my final thoughts thus far.

Question:

What is the name of the poster that looks like the figures is texting?

See Allison's question.
