BIGpedia - Art Nouveau - Encyclopedia and Dictionary Online (779 words)
	Art Nouveau (French for "New art") is an art and design style that peaked in popularity at the turn of the 20th century.
	An important fact is that Art Nouveau did not negate the machine as other movements such as the Arts and Crafts Movement but used it to its advantage.
	In jewellery Art Nouveau revitalised the jeweller's art, with nature as the principal source of inspiration, complemented by new levels of virtuosity in enamelling and the introduction of new materials, such as opals and semi-precious stones.

	...Art itself may be defined as a single minded attempt to render the highest kind of justice to the visible universe, by bringing to light the truth, manifold and one, underlying its every aspect.
	My art is representational by choice....if the art of painting is to survive, it must describe and express people, their lives and times.
