Event Details
This talk delivered by live zoom broadcast from the UK explores why 100 years later we still love the Art Deco Style. The period of 1920s and 1930s saw the movement develop within the social and economic environment of those times. The talk will look at specific examples of civic and domestic architecture in London, New York, Mumbai and Napier and also includes some objets d‘art.
Pamela has an MA in Art History and has lectured widely at universities, to adult groups and to Friends and Patrons of the Royal Academy of Arts, where she worked for 12 years. Pamela specialises in British Domestic Architecture and Modern British Art, with a particular love for the 1920s and 1930s. Pamela is a freelance art consultant, lecturer and curator and some of her clients include Bonhams, Art Loss Register and the National Trust.
