Masterpieces of French Art Deco

Opened August 4, 2009

French Art Deco is one of the great strengths of the Metropolitan’s modern design collection. The Museum has been actively collecting in this area since the 1920s, when pieces were acquired directly from their designers in Paris. This presentation in The Helen and Milton A. Kimmelman Gallery features many of the collection’s most important works, some of which have not been shown for generations.
