The automobile, a rapidly evolving mechanical child of the 20th century, became the perfect metal canvas upon which to express the popular art deco style. Influenced by an international art movement, automakers embraced the sleek, new streamlined forms and aircraft-inspired materials to create memorable automobiles that still thrill all who see them. With bold, sensuous shapes; handcrafted details; and luxurious nishes, this exhibition showcases 14 automobiles and 3 motorcycles with stunning examples of car design...with artistic flair.
