Tag Gronberg here presents the 1925 Paris Exhibition as a key moment in updating the image of Paris as 'capital of the 19th century'. He focuses on the Exhibition as a set of contesting representations of the modern city, stressing the importance of consumption and display for concepts of urban modernity.

This title was first published in 2002. To date, studies explaining decorative practice in the early modernist period have largely overlooked the work of women artists. For the most part, studies have focused on the denigration of decorative work by leading male artists, frequently dismissed as fashionably feminine. With few exceptions, women have been cast as consumers rather than producers. The first book to examine the decorative strategies of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century women artists, Women Artists and the Decorative Arts concentrates in particular on women artists who turned to fashion, interior design and artisanal production as ways of critically engaging various aspects of modernity. Women artists and designers played a vital role in developing a broad spectrum of modernist forms. In these essays new light is shed on the practice of such well-known women artists as May Morris, Clarice Cliff, Natacha Rambova, Eileen Gray and Florine Stettheimer, whose decorative practices are linked with a number of fascinating but lesser known figures such as Phoebe Traquair, Mary Watts, Gluck and Laura Nagy.

Excerpt from New Dimensions, the Decorative Arts of Today in Words Pictures My dear Frankl - You ask me to write a foreword to your book. I suppose a "foreword" is some sort of introduction or preface. A preface is either an apology or a sign of weakness somewhere, in any book. An introduction is an unnecessary assumption or unwarranted meddling on the part of someone. I've never felt otherwise about either. Your book will speak for itself if you write with the authority and insight with which you are accustomed to speak. No soldier like yourself, on the fifth Avenue firing-line in the æsthetic crusade, with the experience of past years in that busy school-shop of yours could fail to say much that is pertinent, valuable and new in relation to that crusade. Why should I vainly try to gild your own gold or paint your own lily. I am eager as anyone to see your pictures and read your text, perfectly sure both will be a valuable contribution - out of experience - to the crusade, which I take it is in the cause of Style as against "Styles."
