Explanation for three selected examples:
1. Art Nouveau: This example showcases intricate and flowing lines, organic forms inspired by nature, and asymmetrical compositions typical of the Art Nouveau movement. The use of floral motifs and soft, pastel colors is also characteristic of the style.
2. Pop Art: This example features bold colors, iconic imagery from popular culture, and a sense of humor and irony commonly found in Pop Art. The use of comic book elements, commercial graphics, and consumer products reflects the movement's focus on making art accessible to the masses.
3. Deconstructivism: This example demonstrates a fragmented and non-linear composition, as well as a focus on the process of construction and deconstruction in design. The use of angular shapes, distorted forms, and complex geometries is indicative of the Deconstructivist movement.
