About Art Nouveau
Art Nouveau was an artistic movement that emerged in the late 19th century, seeking to integrate art into everyday life and breaking with historical styles. It is characterized by sinuous lines, forms inspired by nature such as flowers, stems, and insects, and an organic design that conveys fluidity and elegance. Its development was international, with variations such as German Jugendstil and Catalan Modernism, although its origins lie in Belgium.
In the decorative arts, Art Nouveau reached one of its richest expressions: furniture, lamps, textiles, ceramics, and stained glass were conceived as works of art. Craftspeople and artists such as Gallé, Tiffany, and Gaudí shaped functional objects that were also works of art, using innovative materials and artisanal techniques. This approach sought to beautify the domestic environment without sacrificing functionality.
