SUMMARY:Belgique 58
DESCRIPTION: On 17 April 1958\, the first World´s Fair of the post-war
	 period was enthusiastically inaugurated in Brussels: « Expo 58 ». Des
	pite the wide variety of the pavilions\, the exhibition gives a feelin
	g of belonging to the same epoch. The exhibition seeks to present sign
	ificant architectural and decorative forms of this « 58 style »\, char
	acterised by the abandonment of the monumental symmetries of the pre-w
	ar years and the use of oblique lines and curves\, walls of glass\, sm
	ooth and coloured materials like enamelled Eternit as well as marked b
	y the appearance of tensile structures\, hyperbolic shells… Drawings\,
	 photographs\, models\, posters and furniture bring to life this rare 
	moment of optimism which sealed the end of the post-war years and the 
	passage to the consumer society.
