Art Nouveau is magic

I have BIG LOVE for Art Nouveau.

It inspires me, delights me and presses a multitude of buttons I wont go into here.
From architecture, artwork, jewellery, and more it is just fabulous.
It seems to have a mercurial magic that gives it a timelessness. It is past present and future, it's mythical and supernatural as well as futuristic.

If you are new to Art Nouveau it's a movement at the turn of the 20th Century. The term is french and means 'New Art', it is also known as Jugendstil, German for 'youth style', named after the magazine Jugend, which promoted it.
A reaction to Academic Artof the 19th century, it is characterized by organic, especially floral and other plant-inspired motifs, as well as highly-stylized, flowing curvilinear forms.

Art Nouveau is an approach to design according to which artists should work on everything from architecture to furniture, making art part of everyday life.

This event sounds fantastic and I will definitely be going. Thanks to Hey Harriet for helping to publicising this worthy cause. I love local art and I love the Pando Cafe so this can only be a winner
