Join Architecture Sarasota's Scholar-in-Residence, Dr. Christopher Wilson, in exploring 100 years of the Art Deco style.
About this Event

Art Deco was as much about movement and modernity as it was about glamour. In this lecture, we’ll explore how artists and designers captured the speed, optimism, and power of a new age through sculpture and industrial design.

Discover how the style leapt from gallery to factory floor:

  • Sculpture that celebrated athletic bodies, mythic figures, and aerodynamic form
  • Industrial design that transformed radios, automobiles, and household objects
  • The rise of the streamline aesthetic, where beauty and efficiency worked hand in hand

From heroic bronzes to chrome-plated toasters, Art Deco blurred the boundaries between fine art and functional design, making modern life not only practical — but beautiful.

Join us as we uncover the artistry of objects that defined the Machine Age with style and sophistication.
