ADSW regrets that the bus trip to Boston was cancelled. ADSW will refund the full purchase price of all tickets ordered.
You still can visit the Boston Museum of Fine Arts for the most important Art Deco museum exhibition in years, "Art Deco: 1910-1939."
The show filled three galeries at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum, where it was a tremendous success. The exhibit shows how the Art Deco style combined historic influences (including Egypt, East Asia, and Meso-America) with modern technology to achieve a refined design. A highlight of the show is a recreation of the Grand Salon from the Hôtel D’un Collectionneur. For more information, see descriptions of the exhibtion at the Museum of Fine Arts and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Prepare for the trip by reading Art Deco: 1910-1939 by Tim Benton, Charlotte Benton, and Ghislaine Wood. This book, developed for the exhibition of the same name, contains 40 essays by leading experts in the field. With more than 400 color illustrations, the book describes the origins of Art Deco, its varied forms of expression, and its spread throughout the world. You can find Art Deco: 1910-1939 in museum shops, bookstores, and discounted online at Amazon.com.
