Summary:
This publication analyzes Lebanon’s unique situation—a convergence of economic and architectural reconstruction, social awareness and international development. It also testifies to the designers’ determination to take ownership of their destiny and image by presenting objects and forms that are simultaneously aware of their diverse heritage and are deeply rooted in a complex reality. Prior to the development of this exhibition and publication project, no extensive research has been undertaken on the history of design in Lebanon. This book aims to fill that gap, presenting the state of design based on extensive documentation. It is the first retrospective on design in Lebanon, from the 1920s until today, includes works by over 50 designers, uncovering this major design scene in the Middle-East.

Après l'Art Nouveau et l'Art Déco, est fondée en 1929 l'U.A.M. (Union des Artistes modernes) qui réunit tous les grands créateurs de l'époque. L' « équipement » moderne se substitue à l'ornementation des salons décorés de « bibelots ». Il s'agit à présent de « désencombrer » l'espace intérieur.. A travers une quinzaine d'essais d'historiens de l'art, ce catalogue explore toutes les facettes de l'intérieur moderne en France dans les années 1920-1930 : son héritage des arts décoratifs, son articulation avec les avant-gardes internationales, tel que le Bauhaus ; sa dimension syncrétique impliquant toutes les dimensions de la création ; l'esthétique de la machine et les métaphores de la modernité tel que le paquebot ; la nature comme artifice décoratif. Trois créations architecturales majeures sont également analysées : la villa Noailles de Robert Mallet-Stevens, la Maison de Verre de Pierre Chareau et la villa E-1027 d'Eileen Gray. Enfin, entre design et mode, la mise en mouvement des corps redessine également une nouvelle figure de la femme moderne, aux avant-postes de la création. La transformation de l'espace intérieur trouvera également dans le cinéma un dispositif d'exposition et un outil de communication privilégié de ces changements de paradigme dans la perception de l'intérieur. Le catalogue qui explore une décennie de design met en avant la richesse de la collection du Musée national d'art moderne qui prête l'essentiel des œuvres et des objets de l'exposition.

The movement’s emphasis on aesthetic quality and a high level of craftsmanship, promoted as an antidote to the ubiquity and uninspired appearance of machine-produced products, remains much admired today. Arts and Crafts enjoyed special resonance in Chicago, the home of Jane Addams’s Hull House, where immigrants and women received training in handicraft skills not only to beautify domestic life but also to provide them with viable, honorable work.

Summary:
The Ballets Russes was a phenomenon of the early twentieth century, permeating daily life wherever the company traveled and leaving a lasting impact on dance, theater, and the visual arts. Sergei Diaghilev, impresario from 1909 until his death in 1929, fused the most avant-garde, groundbreaking movements in dance, choreography, art, design, and costume into unique and stunning productions. The work was exciting, and always new, and it stretched the limits of the possible in art. The color, form, and material in costume and set design astonished audiences, transforming every corner of Western culture in the twentieth century. The Ballets Russes and the Art of Design explores these revolutionary icons and ideas, illuminating Sergei Diaghilev's profound revitalization of the arts, which continues to influence us today. Ten essays by internationally recognized experts and 200 color and black-and-white illustrations—many from private collections and never-before-published—discuss a broad range of topics, including set and costume designs, graphic design and poster art, photographs and postcards, Diaghilev's presence in the media, and private and museum collections of Ballets Russes treasures.

Ces modernes, auxquels se joindront Pierre Chareau, Eileen Gray, Le Corbusier, les frères Martel, Charlotte Perriand, Jean Prouvé et bien d'autres, militent pour un art fonctionnaliste, sans ornement, destiné au plus grand nombre. Ils auraient tourné le dos aux Décorateurs et à l'artisanat de luxe, incarné par l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes de 1925, pour créer un mouvement en phase avec les besoins de leur époque.
