SEES u. S. ART THEME
MISSED BY FRENCH
American Expert Describes Failure
Of Nouvean Style Product
of Ohio Youth.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, April 1.-The quick.
fmpulsfve curve of the French art
nouveau style had its origin in the
American broom corn, asserted Charles
Il. Richards, director of the American
Association of Museums, speaking re-
Gently at the Art Institute of Chicago.
when the French and Belgian
artists of the sos. searching for a
new style of art. turned to the ctrved
limo of nature a young lad of II, in
Dayton, Ohio named Il. Colonna, was
publishing a little book called "An
Essay on Broom Corn" Mr. Richards
said. THE book, dated 1887. consisted
first of naturalistic drawing of the
broom corn and then a series of alb
stract designs utilizing its curves.
"Colonna later went to Paris and
eventually joined the Paris group
which was developing the art nou-
veau style. His furniture and jew
elry appeared in the Paris Exposition
of 1900 and were so impressive that
photographs were made. When 1 was
visiting a prominent art official in
Paris I noticed in his Offices some
of Colonnas furniture. He admired
its artistic worth and preserved it,
though the art nouveau style is now
dead"
The art nouvean style in the hands
OF great designers like Colonna has
a lasting artistic value, according to
Prof. Richards. The reason that it
failed as great art movement was
that the curve on which It was based
was too subtle an art form and could
only be handled with success by
genius. When it was taken up by
the French manufacturers they did
not call in the best designers, with
the result that the curve was used
in all sorts of exaggerated and BIZ
zarre ways and the style was soon
run out.
