Since the 1851 Great Exposition at Crystal Palace in London, international expositions had played an important role as a place for foreign competition with the support of their governments. World fairs became propaganda and a benchmark spreading a new style. When the French government limited the 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Moderne exclusively to modern design, Herbert Hoover, the United States Secretary of Commerce, had to reject the invitation to the exposition because the U. S. had not enough examples of modern design to show. Even though such European emigrant designers as Paul Frankl, Kem Weber, and Joseph Urban as well as the American Frank Lloyd Wright worked in modern styles, they were not enough to represent America. However, American modern design in the 1930s incorporated new materials worked exclusively with industry, and largely abandoned historical motifs. American Art Deco style became distinctive from the French modern design. This study examines the difference between the stylistic differences between French and American and explores the social and economic causes.
