If you look again, I was talking about Art Deco, this is the link you gave me...
Art Deco (French: Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes) was a twentieth century movement in the decorative arts, that grew to influence architecture, design, fashion and the visual arts.
And if you go read it again you will see that it didn't die out, if fact to quote again the definition you gave me it came back in the 80's, wow, about the same time computer took off... huh?
Art deco had just as much to do with the advertising of the product just as it did the products them selves. Not to mention all the wannabes like we still see today, throwing thier garbage out there. Art deco has had more of an impact on the art we see today then any other kind. It was an artistic movement that created our "modern" style. The design behind every piece of electronic technology has its roots in Art Deco. Please if you are going to be throwing definitions at me, at least read them first and try to get a few more sources before presenting it. Look again at the last two words in the definition I copied from wiki...
The visual arts are a class of art forms, including painting, sculpture, film, photography, and others, that focus on the creation of works which are primarily visual in nature.
Art deco influenced visual art and its ripple is still effecting us today.
