Art Nouveau Inspired

Famous quotes containing the words art, nouveau and/or inspired:

    Perspective, as its inventor remarked, is a beautiful thing. What horrors of damp huts, where human beings languish, may not become picturesque through aerial distance! What hymning of cancerous vices may we not languish over as sublimest art in the safe remoteness of a strange language and artificial phrase! Yet we keep a repugnance to rheumatism and other painful effects when presented in our personal experience.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The terrifying and edible beauty of Art Nouveau architecture.
    Salvador Dali (1904–1989)

    I have never been able to accept the two great laws of humanity—that you’re always being suppressed if you’re inspired and always being pushed into the corner if you’re exceptional. I won’t be cornered and I won’t stay suppressed.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
