Entrance to the Art Deco exhibition at London Transport Museum. Reflective metal writing is set on blue background rectangles; one says ‘ART DECO’ and a longer one, set below, states ‘The golden age of poster design.’ Both texts are in sans serif type. The blue backgrounds are set on a wall of black, cream, white, brown and red irregular shapes and lines (some swirling, others more sharply curved or edged) with an almost neon purple semi-circular edge at the top-left of the image.

Went to this yesterday. Good to see a photo of #HenryMoore working on the Underground HQ included - he’s referenced in one of the #synthbraska LP songs :-) #ArtDeco #LondonTransportMuseum
