Between 1880 and 1914 Europe hosts a movement whose ambition is to bring beauty to every aspect of life--taking art away from museums and infusing it in architecture, posters, jewlery, and everyday objects. With curves inspired by nature, Art Nouveau flourishes under many names, and many artists adopt it. It reflects socialist, regionalist, elitist, worker's, and artistic revindications, refusing association with politics or ideology. It is the style of Youth. We celebrate it here.
Everyone has huge creative capacities. The challenge is to develop them. A culture of creativity has to involve everybody, not just a select few.
