L’Art déco : une révélation personnelle.

Je me suis toujours demandé : qu’est-ce que l’art déco? Je le confondais souvent avec l’art nouveau. Les deux semblaient se mêler dans mon esprit, comme deux rêves aux contours flous. Mais un jour, la curiosité a eu raison de moi. J’ai cherché, lu, observé et surfé … et je l’ai découvert.
L’Art déco : entre ordre et élégance.

Il est né dans les années au début du siècle dernier, vers l’an 1910 . Il éclot pleinement dans les années 1920. Puis décline doucement dans les années 1930. Son nom est l’abréviation de « Arts décoratifs ». Et son domaine de prédilection ? L’architecture, la décoration, l’intérieur.
Mais ce n’est pas tout. Cet art est né en réaction. Une réponse à l’Art nouveau.
Ce dernier, fluide, exubérant, émotionnel. L’Art déco, lui, préfère l’ordre. La sobriété. La géométrie.
Des lignes pures et des matières nobles.

Avec l’art déco, fini les arabesques infinies. Place aux formes symétriques. Aux matières rares. À la justesse du trait.
On y trouve :
– des pans coupés, pour éviter les angles trop nets ;
– des bow-windows, qui ouvrent l’espace et brisent la monotonie ;
– du béton armé, souvent préféré aux matériaux traditionnels ;
– une ornementation riche, mais toujours mesurée.
Le raffinement en héritage.

Contrairement à ce qu’on imagine, ce genre d’art ne rejette pas la beauté. Il la canalise, la discipline et marie l’art, l’artisanat, et même l’industrie. Et dans les intérieurs, cela se traduit par des meubles d’une rare élégance. Lignes nettes. Matériaux précieux.
Sobriété du geste. Luxe du détail.
Des maîtres comme Jean-Michel Frank, Jean Dunand, Eugène Printz ou Jacques-Émile Ruhlmann ont donné à ce style ses lettres de noblesse.

L’Art déco : la nature stylisée.
Deux motifs dominent dans cet art : les spirales et les fleurs stylisées. Elles ornent balcons, façades, papiers peints. La nature n’est plus sauvage, elle est domptée. Elle devient symbole. Épure.

Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Kudos
