Art – The Evolution of Modern Art

Modern art refers to artistic works produced from the late 19th to the mid-20th century, emphasizing
innovation and rejecting traditional aesthetics. Movements like Impressionism, Cubism, Expressionism, and
Surrealism challenged academic norms.

Impressionists like Monet captured fleeting light effects using loose brushwork. Cubists like Picasso
deconstructed objects into geometric forms. Expressionists like Munch conveyed emotional experience,
while Surrealists like Dalí explored dreams and the unconscious.

These artists responded to industrialization, war, and social upheaval. They sought to express deeper truths,
often subjective and abstract. Modern art paved the way for postmodern and contemporary art, valuing
concept over form.

Modern art continues to shape visual culture, emphasizing creativity, self-expression, and breaking
boundaries.
