The works shown demonstrate a sometimes bewilderingly broad range of styles and stylistic influences. Alastair Duncan organizes his subject into three main categories: the first features work by avant-garde sculptors (Csaky, Janniot, Pompon, etc), often as pieces uniques or small editions; the second shows commercial sculpture, comprising mainly large-edition statuary, commissioned as decorative works for the burgeoning 1920s domestic market; while a final, third category covers architectural and monumental sculpture from West and Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, North America, Brazil and beyond.0With artists' biographies and details of manufacturers, a full glossary and a thematic index, this volume is the essential and authoritative guide for all those interested in the Art Deco style, from the amateur collector of animalier sculpture to professional historians of the period. 650 0 $a Sculpture, Modern $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Art deco. 650 0 $a Sculptors $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Arts, Modern $y 20th century. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211024709.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006103728.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170405035346.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CF272B0000A911E7BE28DDD2DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
