As part of their 75th anniversary year, the Lightner Museum hosts the opening of their exhibit, The Triumph of Nature: Art Nouveau from the Chrysler Museum of Art, on Friday, November 17, 2023, from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m.
An Evening of Art Nouveau will offer guests a first look at the exhibition as they enjoy craft cocktails, small bites, and live music. The museum's ballroom gallery will be decorated in the style of Art Nouveau, and Miami's French Horn Collective will provide the music.
Art Nouveau was particularly popular from the 1890s to World War I. Those who created pieces in the Art Nouveau style challenged the accepted norms and celebrated nature with vibrant colors, curves, and asymmetric compositions.
The Chrysler Museum of Art has one of the best collections of Art Nouveau in the United States. This exhibit includes furniture, glass, paintings, sculptures, ceramics, and textiles from the period. On tour through International Arts and Artists of Washington D.C., the exhibit's first stop is the Lightner Museum in St. Augustine.
Admission: $150.00 per person. For tickets and more information, go here.
