SUMMARY

New York calls to mind many things: the Chrysler Building with its innovative design and sunburst pattern, the Empire State building with its amazing views and dominating size, Rockefeller Center seamlessly merging commerce and art. Each of these cherished pieces of New York were created during one of the cities most stylish and dazzling decades: the 1920s and 30s. "New York Deco "profiles this magnificent period of creativity in architecture when art deco thrived with its emphasis on machine-tooled elegance and sleek lines. Many of the New York City landmarks were born of this age, as well as dozens of lesser-- known office buildings and apartment houses. Together, they make the skyline of the Big Apple what it is today. Richard Berenholtz' s " extraordinary" and " voluptuous" photographs have offered the best of New York in the large scale "New York New York" and "Panoramic New York "and now brilliantly highlight the finest examples of NYC' s art deco architecture. Berenholtz' s photography is accompanied by text from writers, artists, and personalities of the era, including F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dorothy Parker, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Ogden Nash, and Frank Lloyd Wright to create a wonderful celebration of the era. A perfect gift for the New Yorker and tourist alike, this gem of a book is a window into one of city' s most divine periods.Berenholtz, Richard is the author of 'New York Deco', published 2005 under ISBN 9781932183849 and ISBN 1932183841.
