简介

这是一本关于纽约装饰艺术的权威著作，从最细微的细节到最宏大的建筑，全面展现了纽约作为世界装饰艺术之都的魅力。纽约以帝国大厦和克莱斯勒大厦等标志性塔楼闻名，它们是这一风格早期的宏大表达，至今仍有力地诉说着未来与机器时代的精神。装饰艺术以钢材、瓷砖、黄铜、青铜和石材呈现于大小建筑之上，尤其体现在精美的细节之中。书中通过全新的摄影作品，带领读者走进曼哈顿第五大道551号的弗雷德·F·弗伦奇大楼——这座装饰艺术的宝库拥有华丽的门厅，装饰着扇形棕榈叶和鸢尾花纹饰的飞檐，金色亚述骑射手在缟玛瑙背景上张弓搭箭，而装有水晶羽毛和青铜的璀璨吊灯则射出细长的光线。除了这些著名建筑，本书还展示了布朗克斯区大广场旁和布鲁克林高地公寓楼外立面上鲜为人知的杰作。

The definitive book on New York Deco, from the smallest of details to the grandest of buildings. New York City, arguably the world's Art Deco capital, is well known for its striking and still iconic towers that were early expressions of the style writ large—most famously the Empire State and Chrysler buildings, both of which still speak so eloquently of the future and the machine age that continues to move us all forward. Art Deco is drawn in steel, in tile, in brass, in bronze, and in stone upon great buildings and small—and in the details, as so engagingly shown here. The reader is brought, for example, into the extraordinary Fred F. French Building at 551 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, a treasure house of the form whose ornate lobby is a wonder of sparkling seduction in all directions: racing above is a fan palm and fleur de lis–decorated architrave, and golden Assyrian equestrian archers on a field of onyx take aim while stunning chandeliers set with crystal feathers and bronze shoot out their own thin arrows of illumination. Beyond the famous, we are invited to consider little-seen stunners beside the Grand Concourse in the Bronx or upon the face of an apartment house in Brooklyn Heights. Featuring both the legendary and the little known, on display here, through all-new photography, is Art Deco New York as never seen before
