Brutalism in Art

Architecture is the most visible way of art, and every building has a certain type of style that resembles and tells the story of the time and place they were built in. Several movements took place during the 19th/20th Century. Some of the movements were: 
Art Nouveau: It is characterized by having an abundance of odd shapes such arcs, curves, and designs. This style was prominent particularly in Paris, where the artist Siegfried Bing displayed this kind of style in the “Maison de l’Art Nouveau”. The Art Nouveau artists were inspired in nature, such as flowers, clouds, butterflies, marine creatures, as well as the female figure. 
The Art Nouveau was well accepted in Mexican society because of its daring composition. Some examples of this style in Mexico are the “Gran Hotel de México” and the “Roma” colony.
