Description
The 1960s were a time of great change and creativity in design. Decorative Art 1960s explores this era, which saw the emergence of pop art and its influence on architecture, interiors, furniture, lighting, glassware, textiles, metalware, and ceramics. During this decade, social, sexual, and political upheaval led to a surge in visual creativity. The concept of lifestyle became increasingly important, with consumers seeking personal expression through design. Pioneers like Panton, Sottsass, Paolozzi, Parisi, Sarpaneva, and Lomazzi responded to these changing values by producing innovative designs. This book is a rare opportunity to examine the key styles and trends of the 1960s, now highly prized by collectors and dealers.
