Art Nouveau
I found it extremely interesting that Chromolithography
was responsible for so many different things. I thought
it was interesting that one of the first things they started
doing was essentially creating a false sense of security
by smoothing over social problems like child labor and
the coal mines with pretty pictures that were all created
by this new technology. I also thought that it was
extremely interesting that Thomas nas was responsible
for the Donkey and the elephant as well as the image
of santa clause. I was interested to find out about the
ramifications of his work and wether he was faced with
any violent opposition due to his radical new form of
visual communication. I find the work of the Art Nouveau
Movement to be absolutely beautiful. I find that the
intertwining of forms allow the designer to have a
functional outlet for true artistic exploration.
