The Art Deco Dude
Art Deco photographs I've personally taken from around the world. Feel free to link to other tumbler/ fb accounts. I'm trying to get it out there so we can all appreciate Art Deco more and hopefully preserve all of it that is in danger.

Jumping back into editing New York City photos from last year & reminded that the hotel I stayed at (The Beekman Tower/ originally called the Panhellenic Tower) has embellishments from legendary artist Rene Chambellan. He is probably best known for his work on the Chanin Building.

Sad that I will be missing this Saturday’s very special tour of the #ArtDeco #Glendale Air Terminal being put on by @artdeco_la . I already have an Art Deco tour booked up in Seattle that day being put on by @seaarchitecture . Here’s some photos of it I have taken of it before and after restoration.

Today is Art Deco Day so all y'alls get a Tumblr formatted mega-post. My 2012 photos of Chicago's Carbide & Carbon Building (now The Pendry Hotel). As you can see from the extreme close up ones, the building is dark green, not black like some folks think. It was intentionally shaped & colored to look like a corked champagne bottle.

I love it when two things I love but are way not related collide with each other. Case in point: I Art Deco (duh) and I love Industrial & Deathrock music; this is Lead into Gold's 12" single for Idiot/Blackened Heart, Hatred on legendary Wax Trax Records. This is (and still is Paul Barker's project). Paul is best known as the bass player for Ministry & Revolting Cocks back in their heyday. The Art Deco album art are from two Chicago Bridges. One bridge with the female subject, if sketchy sources are correct, is the Ogden Bridge, which was totaled in 1994 (this single came out in 1990). The Ashland Avenue bridge is still there but google maps doesn't show any artwork anywhere. The artist for both is Scipione del Campo, who did many other Chicagoland pieces in the same style.
