5 quick facts about the 1925 Paris Exposition that named Art Deco

The 1925 Exposition attracted over 16 million visitors.

Art Deco emerged as a response to the organic forms of Art Nouveau.

The U.S. declined to participate because it lacked modern art, as claimed by Herbert Hoover.

The Esprit Nouveau pavilion showcased mass-produced furniture, challenging traditional craftsmanship.

The term 'Art Deco' was not coined until the late 1960s after a revival of interest.
