Art Deco was an influential visual arts style that emerged after World War I and flourished in the 1920s-1940s before declining after World War II. It combined traditional motifs with modern machine imagery and materials, and was characterized by rich colors, geometric shapes, and lavish ornamentation. Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. The Jazz Age of the 1920s saw the rise in popularity of jazz music and dance, especially in the US, Britain, and France. This new music and dances like the Charleston outraged some older generations.
"If all of the world´s cultural heritage (sports, music, fashion, architecture, literature, painting, etc..) was contained in a time capsule, what would you include to demonstrate the legacy of your country?"
From the New South Wales Art Gallery, Sydney website :-
"Established in 1871, the Gallery is proud to present fine international and Australian art in one of the most beautiful art museums in the world. We aim to be a place of experience and inspiration, through our collection, exhibitions, programs and research."
"Modern and contemporary works are displayed in expansive, light-filled spaces, offering stunning views of Sydney and the harbour, while our splendid Grand Courts are home to a distinguished collection of colonial and 19th-century Australian works and European old masters. There are also dedicated galleries celebrating the arts of Asia and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art.
Ever since Peter the Great, it was Russian policy to become a major European power. He lead a cultural revolution with an aim to transform the traditional and medieval social and political system into a modern society. In 1764, two years after Catherine the Great on the throne, She brought out Gotzkowski’s collection of 225 paintings, mainly Dutch and Flemish paintings. Politically, Empress Catherine’s patronage would enhance her image of an enlightened monarch. The Gotzkowski’s collection makes up the core of the paintings in Hermitage. In general the Hermitage collection is quite representative of the development of European arts since the 17C. After Catherine the Great, successive monarchs had added to the collection. It is really surprising to find large number of Impressionists paintings and modern paintings in the collection.

The Renaissance Period was a vibrant time when knowledge and fine arts flourished. Artists like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Botticelli, Raphael, and Titian were painting some of humanity's most awe-inspiring works of art. Wars like the War of Roses were fought between clashing dynasties in their arduous quests to rule, and great changes were made in the church during the Protestant Reformation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Art deco
1. ART DECO
Art Deco is an influential visual arts design style that first appeared in
France after World War I and began flourishing internationally in the
1920s, 1930s, and 1940s before its popularity waned after World War II. It
combines traditional craft motifs with Machine Age imagery and
materials. It characterized by rich colours, bold geometric shapes, and
lavish ornamentation. It represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and
faith in social and technological progress.
Art Deco" has its origins in the 1925 French art
exposition at Le Musee des Arts Decoratifs. Art
Deco following the Paris exposition included all the decorative
arts including furniture, flatware and interior design.
The Jazz Age was a feature of the 1920s (ending with The Great Depression) when jazz
music and dance became popular. This occurred particularly in the
United States, Britain, France and so on. Jazz music originated
mainly in New Orleans, and is/was a fusion of African and
European music.
The growth of an alternate generation, was the growth in jazz. This lead
to new dances being created which further angered the older
generation. The Charleston, One Step and Black Bottom were only for
the young and the last one angered the establishment by name alone. The most famous jazzmen
were Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller and Benny Goodman. The combination of the new music, new
dances and new fashions outraged many.
Along with jazz went the ‘crazies’ when people would do crazy things for fun such as sitting
on top of a flag pole for as long as possible; marathon dances that went on until everybody
had dropped and wing flying when you stood strapped onto the wing of a flying plane until
it landed.
