Podcasts about Art Deco

In Paris, in the 1920s, a myriad of languages ​​was spoken. Elegant ladies from all over the world flocked to the French capital to shop to their heart's content. The city, a veritable crossroads of influences, drew inspiration from the most diverse sources. But if there was one country whose charms enchanted high society, it was China. Shanghai was on everyone's lips. The exotic name made people dream, and it inspired and offered a repertoire of new forms to designers.In the workshop of the Lacloche Brothers, a famous jewelry-making duo, traditional Chinese know-how influenced the most ambitious Art Deco creations. A door had opened onto a new world - a world that accompanied women in their desire for novelty and innovation.Voice of Jewels, a podcast from L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts supported by Van Cleef & Arpels.

Click Here to Send me a Fan Mail Message!This is a solo episode with host, Stephanie Socha.  The two main topics are YarnCon 2025 and my final trip to JoAnn Fabrics. This was my first time attending YarnCon, a trade show type event for the knitting, crochet, hand dyers and yarn community. Vendor booths from IL and surrounding states show their beautiful product, much of it hand made, hand dyed and all of it stunning! Below is a list of the vendors from the 2025 show that just took place last weekend (4/5 and 4/6) in Chicago.https://yarncon.com/pages/copy-of-vendorsThe building that YarnCon was held is a historic beaux arts architecture and art deco design.  The link below is the resource I used in this episode.Beaux Arts ArchitectureFinal Shopping at JoAnn FabricsThe second part of this episode is a recap of my final trip to JoAnn Fabrics before they close forever.  A common issue with most shoppers I have heard from and chatted with is that the discounts are not really discounted.  The prices were raised to MSRP and then slightly discounted.  These prices are higher than a JoAnn shopper would have paid prior to the company closing announcement.  If you plan to make one more trip to JoAnn's, I share tips on what to look for and how to shop the discounts in your favor while enjoying the nostalgia  one last time.  Support the showINSTAGRAM: @stephanie.socha.design WEBSITE: https://stephaniesochadesign.com/podcast-make-and-decorate EMAIL: info@makeanddecorate.com YOUTUBE: Stephanie Socha Design

Can jewelry be used as an instrument in liberation or a tool in the struggle for freedom? It is the early 20th century. The world is abuzz with countless battles: those that tear nations apart, but also those for women's rights.It is in this tumultuous context that the Art Deco movement emerges.The jewelry pieces born from this artistic movement become symbols of modernity, freedom, and audacity. In their own way, they accompany the emancipation of women, in particular in the 1920s, nicknamed the “Roaring Twenties”! Their elegance stems from their audacity, mixed with an apparent simplicity. Yet, some of these jewelry items hide unexpected secrets... and even sly war strategies, like the famous Zouzou bracelet worn by Josephine Baker!Voice of Jewels, a podcast from L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts supported by Van Cleef & Arpels.

Movie stars have always worn jewelry. In the 1920s, the Art Deco style gradually took over red carpets and film reels. Worn by some of the greatest actresses of the day, from Louise Brooks to Brigitte Helm, Art-Deco jewelry was the epitome of modern beauty.

Where do new ideas come from? What is the genesis of those masterpieces that have redefined Modernity?At the beginning of the 20th century, a revolutionary artistic movement emerged, with the ambition of changing everything. This movement was Art Deco. A new style, with clean, pure lines that owes its name to an event with global repercussions, held in Paris in 1925: The International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts.At the heart of this avant-garde event, and amongst the jewels that were awarded the Grand Prix, was a bracelet. Its name: Fleurs enlacées, roses rouges et blanches or “Entwined Flowers, Red and White Roses”. Signed Van Cleef & Arpels, this bracelet was the perfect combination of tradition and Modernity.Voice of Jewels, a podcast from L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts supported by Van Cleef & Arpels.

Clarice Cliff was a pioneering British ceramicist who defied expectations and left an indelible mark on the Art Deco movement. Born into a working-class family in 1899, Clarice's artistic talent and relentless ambition propelled her from a factory apprentice to an internationally celebrated designer. We explore her groundbreaking “Bizarre” ware, the bold colors and geometric patterns that revolutionized pottery in the 1920s and ‘30s, and how she carved out a space for herself in a male-dominated industry. Her journey wasn't just about creating beautiful ceramics—it was about innovation, resilience, and breaking societal norms. Listen to the story behind the woman who turned everyday tableware into collectible works of art.  Follow us on IG: @homance_chronicles Connect with us: linktr.ee/homance Send us a Hoe of History request: homancepodcast@gmail.com

Dans son article intitulé «L'Exposition des Arts décoratifs à Paris, à la recherche d'une formule d'art », publié dans le journal La Meuse, Olympe Gilbart écrit : « Ah ! certes, nous pouvons être quelquefois heurtés dans nos habitudes ; notre œil peut s'étonner de lignes hardies, de rythmes imprévus, d'harmonies inattendues. Mais le temps égalisera tout cela et consacrera la formule que la postérité classera et jugera. » Précisément nommée « Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes », l'événement se tient d'avril à octobre, dans la capitale française.. Le peintre Charles Dufresne en résume l'esprit général : « L'art de 1900, dit-il, fut l'art du domaine de la fantaisie, celui de 1925 est du domaine de la raison ». C'est, en effet, une tendance qui s'exprime avec les styles Art déco et moderniste, traduisant les aspirations à la liberté qui suivent la Première Guerre mondiale. Dans les grandes métropoles d'Europe et d'Amérique du Nord, on assiste à l'émergence d'une nouvelle élite urbaine et intellectuelle qui souhaitent rompre avec les principes esthétiques et moraux de la société traditionnelle. Les femmes se coupent les cheveux « à la garçonne », les courants artistiques comme le cubisme, le fauvisme, le futurisme inspirent des formes géométriques épurées et des couleurs éclatantes . L'Orient fascine, la vitesse devient un mode d'existence. Les arts décoratifs se réinventent, les artistes et les industriels collaborent pour produire des objets fonctionnels et esthétiques, la maison devient un « art total ». C'est dans ce contexte, que les Van Buuren (David et Alice) vont faire rayonner, à Bruxelles, le « Style 1925 », cette recherche du beaux dans tous les domaines de la vie domestique. Avec nous : Pierre Leclercq, historien de l'alimentation, collaborateur scientifique à l'ULG, responsable du Petit Lancelot qui nous propose des repas-conférences où la gastronomie se mêle à la découverte culturelle et Manon Magotteaux, conservatrice du Musée et Jardins van Buuren.

Perché la guglia del Chrysler Building fu assemblata in segreto all'interno dell'edificio? Come mai l'Empire State fu soprannominato "Empty State Building" durante la Grande Depressione?

In this episode, Greg sits down with Jack Burrows, a level designer at NetEase, to explore the art, science, and philosophy behind video game level design. They discuss how developers balance player experience with creative ambition, the importance of time management and willpower, and how great design tells a story without words. Jack shares personal insights on motivation, creative process, and the emotional impact of level design, drawing on examples from Bioshock, Skyrim, and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. Packed with practical advice and industry reflections, this episode is a masterclass for aspiring game designers and anyone curious about how the "sausage is made" in the world of video game development.Key Moments & Takeaways1. The Developer's Dilemma: Playing Games as a Player vs. Developer (00:00:00 - 00:01:24) Insight: Developers struggle to enjoy games like regular players because they see the flaws in design. Jack's View: While it's hard to "turn off" the developer brain, it's a crucial skill to cultivate empathy for players and understand their experience. Memorable Line: "If we're going to make games for players, we have to play games as a player so that you know the expectations that you would have if you were sitting there with a brand new game."2. Time Management and Discipline (00:01:44 - 00:03:02) Challenge: Balancing personal ambition with responsibilities and fatigue. Example: Jack praises Thaddeus and Cliff Schult, two developers who inspire him with their time management skills, balancing family, work, and passion projects. Takeaway: Willpower is finite, and daily responsibilities drain it. Small wins, like logging accomplishments or tracking time, can help stay motivated. Memorable Line: "Willpower is a resource that you have to spend day to day."3. The Role of Ambition in Level Design (00:12:26 - 00:17:07) Definition: Ambition in design means taking familiar ideas and pushing them further. Example: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes built on Metroid Prime by adding a dark, toxic alternate dimension, challenging players with a new, more dangerous world. Takeaway: Ambition is about taking something known and making it feel fresh. Jack explains how ambition fuels his desire to present original games on a big stage one day. Memorable Line: "How do I make it greater? How do I spin this on its head?"4. How Great Level Design Tells a Story (00:47:57 - 00:51:04) Insight: Level design can tell a story through environment, atmosphere, and visuals alone — no dialogue needed. Example: Bioshock tells its story visually with decaying luxury, Art Deco styles, and objects like broken picket signs and syringes on the ground. Takeaway: Great level design marries "the human and the understood" with "the unbelievable" to create memorable, immersive experiences. Memorable Line: "What was once glorious and posh and clean is now desolate and decaying... purely through the emotion, through the lighting, through the tone."

fWotD Episode 2798: 1 Wall Street Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 1 January 2025 is 1 Wall Street.1 Wall Street (also known as the Irving Trust Company Building, the Bank of New York Building, and the BNY Mellon Building) is a skyscraper in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan in New York City, United States. Designed in the Art Deco style, the building is 654 feet (199 m) tall and consists of two sections. The original 50-story building was designed by Ralph Thomas Walker of the firm Voorhees, Gmelin and Walker and constructed between 1929 and 1931 for Irving Trust, an early-20th-century American bank. A 28-story annex to the south (later expanded to 36 stories) was designed by successor firm Voorhees, Walker, Smith, Smith & Haines and built between 1963 and 1965.The building occupies a full city block between Broadway, Wall Street, New Street, and Exchange Place. The limestone facade consists of slight inwardly-curved bays with fluting to resemble curtains. On the lower stories are narrow windows and elaborate entrances. The massing of 1 Wall Street incorporates numerous small setbacks, and there are chamfers at the corners of the original building. The top of the original building consists of a freestanding tower with fluted windowless bays. The facade of the annex is crafted in a style reminiscent of the original structure. The original building has an ornate lobby, known as the Red Room, with colored mosaics. Originally, the 10th through 45th floors were rented to outside tenants, while the other floors contained offices, lounges, and other spaces for Irving Trust. After 1 Wall Street was converted to a residential building, the upper stories were divided into 566 condominium apartments.At the time of its construction, 1 Wall Street occupied what was one of the most valuable plots in the city. The building replaced three previous structures, including the Manhattan Life Insurance Building, which was once the world's tallest building. After Irving Trust was acquired by the Bank of New York (BNY) in 1988, 1 Wall Street served as the global headquarters of BNY and its successor BNY Mellon through 2015. After the developer Harry Macklowe purchased the building, he renovated it from 2018 to 2023, converting the interior to residential units with some commercial space.The building is one of New York City's Art Deco landmarks, although architectural critics initially ignored it in favor of such buildings as the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building. The exterior of the building's original section was designated as a city landmark in 2001, and the Red Room's interior was similarly designated in 2024. In addition, the structure is a contributing property to the Wall Street Historic District, a National Register of Historic Places district created in 2007.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:10 UTC on Wednesday, 1 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see 1 Wall Street on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Arthur.

"I live life in the margins of society. And the rules of normal society don't apply in the margins." Welcome to the saucy, scandalous slag-paradise that is Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980)! Tamara was a Polish-born aristocrat, bisexual painter, and Art Deco diva who took Paris by storm in the 1920s after escaping the Russian Revolution. She was known for her hunger, a deep yearning to become a great artist and gobble up anything and everyone who stood in her path. (Including her husband! Move out the way, b*tch.) As a sapphic siren of the Jazz Age, she was also part of Paris' lesbian underground, which featured clubs and bars that catered to butch and femme tastes alike. That is, before the populist Fascists came in and ruined everything (sound familiar, America?). A self-made woman who subjugated everything to her art, Tamara cared as much about poontang and diamonds as she did her reputation. She was a PR genius, but despite that, we barely talk about her today. Join me and Stephen Brower – comedian, writer, and recent cast member of LEMPICKA on Broadway – to discuss the dazzling life of this Art Deco dynamo.
