Popular Art Movement Between 1600 to 2000

Cubism

Cubism was a 20th century avant-garde art movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music and literature. In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form — instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context.

Surrealism

Surrealism developed out of the Dada activities of World War I and the most important center of the movement was Paris. From the 1920s onward, the movement spread around the globe, eventually affecting the visual arts, literature, film and music of many countries and languages, as well as political thought and practice, philosophy and social theory. This movement is best known for the visual artworks and writings of the group members.

Impressionism

Impressionism was a 19th-century art movement that began as a loose association of Paris-based artists whose independent exhibitions brought them to prominence in the 1870s and 1880s. The name of the movement is derived from the title of a Claude Monet work, Impression, Sunrise. Impressionists broke the rules of academic painting. They began by giving colours, freely brushed, primacy over line, drawing inspiration from the work of painters such as Eugène Delacroix. They also took the act of painting out of the studio and into the modern world.

Baroque

Baroque is an artistic style prevalent from the late 16th century to the early 18th century in Europe. It is most often defined as “the dominant style of art in Europe between the Mannerist and Rococo eras, a style characterized by dynamic movement, overt emotion and self-confident rhetoric”.

Expressionism

Expressionism was a cultural movement, initially in poetry and painting, originating in Germany at the start of the 20th century. Expressionism emerged as an ‘avant-garde movement’ in poetry and painting before the First World War. Expressionism is exhibited in many art forms, including: painting, literature, theatre, dance, film, architecture and music.

Fauvism

Fauvism began around 1900 and continued beyond 1910. The leaders of the movement were Henri Matisse and André Derain. The paintings of the Fauves were characterized by seemingly wild brush work and strident colors, while their subject matter had a high degree of simplification and abstraction.

Popular Art Movement Between 1400 to 1600

Italian Renaissance

This was a period from the end of 13th century to 1600 when great cultural change and achievement took place in Europe.  The word renaissance (Rinascimento in Italian) means “rebirth”, and the era is best known for the renewed interest in the culture of classical antiquity after the period that Renaissance humanists labeled the Dark Ages. These changes, while significant, were concentrated in the elite, and for the vast majority of the population life was little changed from the middle Ages.

The renaissance officially began in 15th century Florence and marked numerous innovations in art with regards to perspective, composition and subject matter. There was a strong emphasis on depicting nature in the form of landscapes, as well as a strong movement towards portraying religious figures in a different light.

The 16th century Renaissance, which is also referred to as “The High Renaissance” began to shift to Rome and the court of Pope Julius II. He hired many leading Italian artists and architects to complete his projects, including the most notable artist of the High Renaissance, Michelangelo.

The Italian Renaissance is best known for its cultural achievements. The famous artists associated with this period were Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Sandro Botticelli, Raphael, Titian, Giorgione, Donatello, Fra Angelico, Masaccio, Agostino di Duccio.

German Renaissance

It was a cultural and artistic movement that spread among German thinkers in the 15th and 16th centuries, which originated from the Italian Renaissance in Italy. This was a result of German artists who had traveled to Italy to learn more and become inspired by the Renaissance movement. The German Renaissance pushed classical thinking, arts, and the natural sciences to the forefront during this period of thinking with Germany. This also made scientists focus more on the world around them and focus less on the heavens. This was a major turning point in history.

Major people associated with this movement were Martin Luther, Johann Reuchlin, Johannes Gutenberg and Konrad Celtis.

Abstract Art and Its Types

Abstract Art is an art that is not an accurate representation of a form or object. This form of art uses different ways such as shape, color, and form for representation. The artist takes the object and then explains it. These compositions might differ from their available visual references.

Wassily Kandinsky was the original abstract artist producing the first completely abstract work of art in 1910. Two years later he wrote a theory on abstract art called On the Spiritual in Art. In this publication he emphasized the general theory among Abstract artists that art should portray the spiritual realm and not just the visual world. He believed a painting should not be analyzed intellectually but allowed to reach those parts of the brain that connect with music.

There are different types of abstract art. Few basic types are:

  • Geometric: This is also known as Non-Objective Art. It is characterized by non-naturalistic imagery, geometrically inspired shapes such as circles, squares, triangles, rectangles etc. It is the purest form of abstraction.
  • Color or Light Related: Colors and light are used to detach the work of art from reality. The famous example of this abstract art is the final sequence of Water Lily paintings by Claude Monet and Fauvist works of Henri Matisse.
  • Curvilinear: One of the oldest types of decorative art in the world, is strongly associated with Celtic Art, which employed a range of abstract motifs including knots, interlace patterns, and spirals (including the triskele, or the triskelion).
  • Emotional: Embraces a mix of styles, whose common theme is a naturalistic tendency. This naturalism is visible in the type of shapes and colors employed.
  • Minimalist: This type of abstraction was a back-to-basics sort of avant-garde art, stripped of all external references and associations.
