Art Deco
Art Deco – Major Players and major pieces?
I’m doing a presentation at school on Art Deco (for my Product Design AS level class) and i need some help! I need a few different pieces that are considered the most “important” or things that are really famous. I’ve done the chrysler building. I also need a few major people in the design movement.
Also, any other info you think i should include that i wouldn’t have already stumbled upon?
Thanks!
