Ms Vyonne Geneve OAM, MA

In 1987 Vyonne Geneve founded ADSWA in response to public concern at the threat of destruction of WA's Inter-War built heritage and has been President since its establishment.

She was directly involved in the formation of the International Coalition of Art Deco Societies. While her major academic focus is on the Western Australian Cinemas she has a wide knowledge of many aspects of the period and writes and speaks extensively on the topic.

She is author of the Chapter on Art Deco Western Australia in Sunrise over the Pacific, a major publication on Australian Art Deco.
