They had the French revolution of the 18th century, 1900 very dramatic developments in the city scape and so on. In 2000 it seems to us that people are looking around, backwards and forwards and this style seems to have captured the popular imagination.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eIt's a staggering number of art works, 350 masterpieces, in fields ranging from glassware and painting, to furniture and architecture.\u003cbr/\u003eJust moving the pieces from the 20 different countries and the almost 80 different museums, not counting the dozens of private collections involved provided transportation and logistical nightmares for the curators putting the exhibit together.\u003cbr/\u003eLarge parts of the National Gallery of Art were rebuilt to accommodate the works in suitable style.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"We feel that pulled all the greatest masterworks of Art Nouveau in all the different materials.  We think we have the greatest piece of jewellery, the greatest piece of glass, the greatest piece of furniture and so on. So, it was a long slow job, we are profoundly happy with it now.  Its the biggest Art Nouveau exhibition which has ever been held, only been outstripped by some of the exhibitions that were held at the time in 1900 for example, so it wont be repeated again.  This stuff, a very large proportion of it, will never come to the United States ever again, and I don't think ever again will it ever be pulled together in this way.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eThe exhibits designers wanted to show how the Art Nouveau style evolved borrowing images from other cultures, from Celtic and Viking designs to oriental ones.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"In the first part of the exhibition we wanted to show people things that the Art Nouveau designers were inspired by and this is one of the first generations of European and North American art movements, one of the first ones, to make use of things outside Europe. They were deeply in love with China, with Japan, with Islam and they fused all of things in their designs. So we are still in a room now in the exhibition with fantastic masterpieces from all of those countries.  And the interesting thing about a lot of these things in here is that they are the exact specific ones that we know the designers saw in the museums at the time.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eThe exhibit also contains many of the world's most outstanding examples of their type.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"In the entrance of our exhibition there is a piece of jewellery called the Dragonfly Woman by Rene Lalique.  Its a legendary piece in that it is widely thought by specialists in the field to be the greatest piece of jewellery ever made.  Its spectacular, its quite mind boggling in its appearance and in the way it feels and really everybody should come and see that particular object.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eAnother prominent feature of the Washington show is the display of whole rooms, down to the tiniest details, to provide examples of how the movement changed interior design.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"We decided to ship two entire rooms from their homes over to the exhibition to show people how interiors can work.  So we have a Glasgow tea rooms by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, which was bought - all its walls, its ceilings, all its fittings, fixtures, furnishings, cutlery and so on and so on, reassembled here.  A tremendously difficult job. And we have an Italian Art Nouveau room, which actually spends most of the time now in Miami in the Wolfsonian Foundation.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eBut the movement has been captured in America in various ways already.\u003cbr/\u003eSOUNDBITE: (English)\u003cbr/\u003e\"America is seen as sort of peripheral to Art Nouveau as something that kind of happens afterwards.  We didn't see it that way.  Our view is that the new world took up the new art in a very particular way for the American public. And you get one particular flavour in Chicago, which is largely driven by architecture.  In New York it is driven by large entrepreneurial companies like Tiffany and arguably Tiffany is the most famous Art Nouveau artist of all.\" \u003cbr/\u003eSUPER CAPTION: Paul Greenhalgh, Curator, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum, London\u003cbr/\u003eArt Nouveau as a movement died with the outbreak of World War I.\u003cbr/\u003eThe exhibit opens Sunday and occupies two floors of the National Gallery of Art's East Wing.\u003cbr/\u003eThe show runs through to January 28th and then the core of the exhibit moves to the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum where it will open in April 21.\u003cbr/\u003e Washington, D.C., U.S. - October 6, 2000\u003cbr/\u003e1.
