“If movies promised life, liberty, and the pursuit of riches,
then Art Deco provided the perfect setting.”
– Howard Mandelbaum and Eric Myers, Screen Deco: A Celebration of High Style in Hollywood
Commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Exposition des Arts Decoratifs and Industriels Modernes in Paris, which introduced this revolutionary new design movement to the world, the festival includes over 25 films from the 1920s and 1930s, all stellar examples of movies designed in the style now known as Art Deco, a term not coined until the 1960s.
