Art Deco is like the cubist Art Nouveau. The design is a lot more geometric and fragmented, as can be seen in Rio de Janeiro's statue, Christ the Redeemer, designed by French sculptor Paul Landowski. Inspired by modern architecture, like Bauhaus designs, as well as ancient Egyptian and Aztec art, the style is a conglomeration of many artistic factions.
