L’Art Déco est un mouvement artistique qui commença en 1910 pour se terminer en 1939.
Ce style typiquement français succède à l’exubérance de l’Art nouveau qui était avant tout ornemental.
L’Art déco revient à la pureté des formes et se veut à la fois géométrique et décoratif. Il est extrêmement influent surtout dans l’architecture et le design, ainsi que toutes les formes d’arts plastiques (source).
Voici quelques quilts inspirés de ce courant :

The Art Deco returns to the purity of forms and is intended both geometric and decorative. It's extremely influential especially in architecture and design, as well as all forms of plastic arts.

RépondreSupprimerI love art deco and reading your post with ready Englaih translations was a great way for me to practice my French! I’ve joined the linky party. Great idea!

What a perfect start to your series. My town is famed for it's Art Deco theatre and exhibition centre along with several related outdoor events each year, so anything to do with that period fascinates me. And my goodness, these works certainly do! Thanks for dropping by my blog.
RépondreSupprimerBeautiful quilts! Enjoyed looking at that art!
RépondreSupprimerThe art looks very beautiful! I don't think I've seen such exquisite quilt art previously.
RépondreSupprimerWhat a wonderful showcase of art deco quilts. I can see one of these in my future!
RépondreSupprimerThank you for visiting my blog Frederique.
RépondreSupprimerI love art deco and all the quilts you've showcased in this post are stunning.
I had heard of the art deco movement, but had no idea what it was about or how influential it was. I cannot see the pictures as I am blind, but I'm sure they are beautiful.

Wow! Completely love this collection of Art Deco quilts. It really makes me want to make one, myself. And then to do an Art Nouveau quilt as a counter-study . . .
RépondreSupprimerBeautiful quilts!
RépondreSupprimerTo me "Art Deco" is basically a neighborhood in Miami Beach ;-)
Happy A-Z!

WOW! These are stunningly beautiful! I've always loved Art Deco, but I don't think I've ever seen it in quilt form before!
RépondreSupprimerI love Art Deco style. I had no idea that it could be expressed so well in quilts. These are lovely!
RépondreSupprimerImpressive artwork. Wonderful start to this year's A to Z Challenge.
RépondreSupprimerThose are lovely things . . . . . And thanks for visiting it is much appreciated
RépondreSupprimerWhat a GREAT idea to have Mr. Linky. Saves me so much time!
RépondreSupprimerI love your post about Art Deco. What a visual delight to see what you chose. My mind boggles at how much skill it must take to put even one of them together.
Great! Thanks for starting the Link Party!
RépondreSupprimerThe quilts you showcased are wonderful!
Those are great quilts. I do love art deco.
RépondreSupprimerQuilting is something I always wanted to learn from my MIL but never did. Perhaps it's not too late to learn now. These deco designs are quite interesting. I loved the ones with the vintage girls the most! Thanks for stopping by my place today for a peak at my first edition in my A2Z Pinup Girl Sketch Series. Stay safe and healthy, my dear, and happy A2Zing!
RépondreSupprimerThey really are gorgeous. Quilting is a work of art and what a joy to see the many expressions.
RépondreSupprimerHappy A to Z

I have never seen Art Deco quilts before but I love the style and the geometric style works well. Visiting A to Z https://ayfamilyhistory.com/2020/04/01/a-is-for-admiralty/
RépondreSupprimerThe quilts are amazing!
RépondreSupprimerthese are so beautiful. There is so much talent out there. It was hard to choose a favourite one. Thanks for dropping by my post. And thanks for the linky. Will look forward to the rest of your posts and discover new ones.
RépondreSupprimerThese are absolutely beautiful!! Wow. I would love to try my hand at an art deco quilt. I wonder if any of these are available as a pattern for purchase.

Lovely quilts. And I don't need to speak French to appreciate them! You're amazing posting in both French and English.

Great Read.Never new Quilt Design was also so scientific and elaborate.
RépondreSupprimerThank you Aditya. I wanted to tell you: I can't comment on your blog posts.
SupprimerFantastic assortment of Art Deco quilts -- like a curated museum exhibit! I see a lot of Art Deco influence in the "ruler work" longarm machine quilting of the past few years, even on quilts that have very traditional or very contemporary piecing or appliqué. These geometric motifs are not as difficult to execute as free motion feathers (thanks to acrylic ruler templates that ensure smooth curves and arches and perfectly straight quilted lines), and they complement so many different aesthetic styles.
RépondreSupprimerLa Dame Moderne and the Door are my two favourites of the quilts above :-)

Truly beautiful and exciting designs in fabric.
RépondreSupprimerOh goodness I made it! I am trying to play catch up today since I've had no time all week to do anything AtoZ related. I LOVED button art work! WOW WOW WOW! Amazing! Thanks for sharing these! And the denim one blew me away too!! Sorry I'm not so engaged this challenge but work/life balance is a littler crazy right now. I am looking and while I might not comment, your posts are always great to look into!
