Art Deco Style is the most comprehensive and wide-ranging study of Art Deco yet to be published. Truly international in scope and covering the whole spectrum of art, design and architecture, this richly illustrated book demonstrates the all-pervasiveness and essential coherence of Art Deco as a style, and reflects the fascination that it continues to exert as a living influence.

If one had to select a single title from the recent spate of books discussing the Art Deco style, it should be this crisply written, magnificently illustrated volume. Indeed, Hiller is no stranger to Art Deco scholarship (Art Deco of the 20s and 30s), and his lively discussion of the turbulent era of the twenties and thirties quickly sweeps one back in time to a style that became easily identifiable and was adopted to one degree or another by all of the mechanical and fine arts. The illustrations, mostly in color, are beautifully reproduced. Art students in particular will benefit from this attention to detail. The volume concludes with a notes section, brief biographies of notable artists and designers, and a useful bibliography. Highly recommended for all audiences.
