Art Deco Illustrations and Posters

So here is the final verdict on your preferences in art:

Style: art deco

Genre: illustrations, design

Originally art deco is a design style mostly suited for architecture, graphics, interior design and illustration, although it did find its way into the fine arts. The style emerged and developed in the period between the world wars as a way of escaping from the sullen circumstances of social and economic life. The same desire to escape… gave rise to other styles like cubism or surrealism, but instead of being taken into some trandescent worlds or submerging into the depths of one’s subconscious, the viewer chooses to leave all doubt and anxiety behind and live for the day, as if there were no tomorrow, and to get carried away by the sounds of jazz and the sparkles of champagne. Art deco features streamlined and dynamic subjects of glamorous life, strict lines and regular geometric forms, bright saturated colours, expensive and exotic materials. It was widely used in design, graphic arts, architecture and jewelry. Illustrations and posters in the style of art deco fit perfectly into modern home interiors, and they are cheaper than paintings.

A person who chooses this genre in art deco is a creative person who feels the spirit of the times and knows how to adjust without losing his individuality. He realizes that in modern world part of the professionalism is the ability to promote your work. For instance, if this person is a writer, he will get published, go online and talk to his audiences instead of staying in the basement waiting for somebody to discover him. He knows that there will be no people “not appreciated in their own time” any more. If you die unknown, you stay unknown – that’s the spirit of our time. The person who chose illustrations and design in the style of art deco is a dynamic and ambitious person who seeks to stay in the limelight whatever he does – and he always succeeds. He is never sorry or sympathetic with people of lower income or status – he believes that they get what they deserve, and to improve their lives they should work either more or harder. He is bold and decisive, he loves competition and is expressively proud of his frequent successes.
