20 APRIL
An exciting new exhibition of ''modern style'' art, or "Art Nouveau" as it is known in France, opened today at the Socice'te' Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This decorative arts style has been developed by artists all over Europe for the past few years and is charactized by snake-like lines and patterns. It can be seen in many places, from the posters of Alphonse Mucha and the jewellery of Rene' Lalique, to the design of the Me'tro stations in Paris and furnshings for the homes.
