Design 19351965: What Modern Was offers a unique perspective on the decorative arts of the midtwentieth century. The first serious book to be published on this pivotal period, it focuses on 200 of the finest objects from the most important designers and artists of the time. Together with some 300 comparative illustrations, these works create a rich and surprisingly diversified image of the Modern period in design.' 'Renowned historian Paul Johnson has written a thoughtprovoking essay on the political background of the years 19351965, and each chapter opens with an insightful examination into each style. The individual entries, by noted experts in the fields of furniture, ceramics, glass, textiles, metalwork, and graphic design, present a wealth of information on the works as well as an understanding of their techniques. Detailed biographies of all the designers and histories of the companies responsible for creating the objects make this book an invaluable reference tool.' 'A major contribution to the literature on design, in terms of both its range and depth, and a beautifully produced object in itself, Design 19351965: What Modern Was is based on the Liliane and David M. Stewart Collection, a superb ensemble of objects that forms the core of the Musee des Arts Decoratifs de Montreal. Both the collection and this volume promise ample rewards for anyone interested in design and the decorative arts.'BOOK JACKET.
