Rose Iron Works: From Art Nouveau to Art Deco

Cleveland Museum of Art
Cleveland, Ohio
July 6–October 19, 2025

Martin Rose, born in Hungary and trained in the florid Art Nouveau tradition, emigrated to Cleveland in the early 1900s and established one of the country’s premier decorative metalwork manufacturers. Later Rose brought the Art Deco style to Cleveland buildings. This exhibition will trace the transition via important commissions and place the work in its European context.
