It then gives biographical details and examples of work by Renata Bernal and Willem de Kooning, describing their artistic styles and evolution over their careers.
Cubism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture. Led by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, cubism rejected traditional perspective and sought to depict subject matter from a multitude of viewpoints in order to represent the subject in the round. Cubist works are characterized by the geometric fragmentation and synthetic reassembling of forms.
Conceptual art emerged in the 1960s as an art movement focused on conveying ideas rather than creating traditional art objects. It was influenced by Marcel Duchamp's "readymades" and intended to challenge notions of what art could be. Key aspects of conceptual art include prioritizing concepts over physical works and questioning relationships between art, artists, and audiences. Pioneering conceptual artists included Joseph Kosuth, Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner, and members of the influential Art & Language group.
Cubism was an influential early 20th century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture. Developed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque between 1907-1914 in Paris, Cubism featured geometric shapes and multiple perspectives to depict subjects from a multitude of angles. Cubist works were characterized by the fragmentation of forms, abstract color, and the fusion of subject matter. The movement had two phases - analytical cubism focused on geometric abstraction while synthetic cubism incorporated collage materials into paintings. Major cubist artists included Picasso, Braque, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, Marcel Duchamp, and sculptors Alexander Archipenko and Raymond D
Cubism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement founded by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Cubism involved depicting subjects from multiple viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. The artists fragmented objects and reassembled them in an abstracted form rather than using single-point perspective. This allowed for objects to be analyzed from multiple angles and depicted simultaneously on a two-dimensional surface. Cubism revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture.
Cubism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture. It was developed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque between 1907-1920, inspired by African art and Post-Impressionist painters like Cézanne. Cubism depicted subjects from multiple viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. There were two phases: Analytic Cubism focused on geometric forms like cubes from 1908-1912; Synthetic Cubism reassembled subjects with collage from 1912-1919. Cubism influenced later artistic movements like Surrealism and Expressionism and revolutionized how artists depicted the visual world.
This document provides information about op art and optical illusions. It defines op art as "optical art" that uses techniques like geometric patterns and contrasting colors to create optical illusions and trick the eye. Examples of op art illusions include works by Bridget Riley that use line and shape to create the illusion of movement. The document also discusses famous op artists like Victor Vasarely and provides examples of their works that employ optical illusions. It suggests options for a student art project to create original op art designs using geometric or organic illusions with colored pencils.
Abstract Expressionism emerged in New York City in the 1940s as artists rapidly applied paint to large canvases in an expressive style, drawing from Surrealist ideas of tapping the unconscious mind. There were two main types: action painting, which emphasized the artist's hand movements and texture, and color field painting, which used broad areas of color. Famous artists like Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Arshile Gorky, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still developed techniques like dripping and splattering paint to create emotional, non-representational works focused on the creative process over any subject matter.

This document profiles several notable African American artists including Radcliffe Bailey who examines American history to promote healing from issues like slavery, Jean-Michel Basquiat who was a pioneering neo-impressionist from Brooklyn, and Diane Edison who explores race through self-portraits. It also mentions the enslaved artist Scipio Moorhead, Faith Ringgold who shares African American culture through story-quilts, and Kara Walker who depicts racial inequity and violence.
Abstract art developed in the late 19th century as artists felt a need for a new art form that reflected the fundamental changes in technology, science, and philosophy. It uses forms, colors, and lines instead of attempting to represent recognizable reality. In the 20th century, several movements contributed to abstract art becoming more removed from visual references, including Romanticism, Impressionism, and Expressionism. Artists like Kandinsky and Mondrian were also influenced by Eastern and occult philosophies. During this time, abstract art developed in Russia, Germany, France, and the United States. It became an international art movement as artists fled Europe during World War II and spread abstract styles around the world.
Collage is a visual art form that combines different materials like paper, photographs, and found objects glued to a backing surface. A collage forms a new whole from disparate parts. Popular collage artists from the early 20th century Dada movement included Kurt Schwitters, Hannah Hoch, and Raoul Hausmann. Later, Henri Matisse and Romare Bearden experimented with paper cutouts and representational collages incorporating social commentary. Today, many contemporary artists continue working in the collage medium.
A short lesson about the history of pop art and many examples to explain the techniques and themes seen in pop art. 2D pop art assignment on the end, geared towards middle to secondary education students.
By the late 19th century, European artists felt the need for a new form of art that reflected the fundamental changes in technology, science, and philosophy. Total abstraction bears no trace of anything recognizable and is considered non-representational by the artist, who views the work as merely design and composition without meaning. The document then provides examples of artists from Van Gogh to local contemporary artists who have contributed to the development of abstract art in various movements from Post-Impressionism to Color Field art.
Mixed media refers to artwork that combines multiple mediums, such as a canvas painting incorporating paint, ink, and collage. The document provides examples of mixed media artworks, including Ed Fairburn's maps series which turns road and subway maps into canvases for ink and pencil portraits. It also lists several mixed media artists and provides instructions for students to create their own mixed media drawings using various materials before a deadline of October 5th.
Expressionism was an early 20th century art style characterized by intense emotions and distortions. It focused on conveying feelings over realistic representations. Vincent van Gogh and Edvard Munch were early expressionist artists known for expressive, emotionally charged works. Later expressionist groups included Die Brücke and Der Blaue Reiter in Germany. Dadaism emerged during WWI as a rejection of reason and logic through absurd, nonsensical works by artists like Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia. Surrealism aimed to access the unconscious through automatism and dreamlike juxtapositions in the works of artists such as Salvador Dali, Joan Miró, and René Magritte. Social real
Pointillism was a technique developed by Georges Seurat in 1886 where paintings were created using small distinct dots of pure color. When viewed from a distance, the eye blends the colors together. Key elements of pointillism include using primary colors, the color wheel, and small dots to depict value. Famous pointillist artists included Seurat, Signac, Angrand, and Cross. Seurat's most famous work "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" depicts Parisians at leisure in the park and scholars have debated its meaning.
Pop Art emerged in the 1950s as a visual art movement that incorporated popular and mass media iconography into fine art. It reflected the optimism and consumerism of postwar society. Major Pop Artists like Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg used imagery and techniques from commercial art, advertising, and mass media to comment on the relationship between artistic expression and commodity culture. Their works employed recognizable symbols and objects in a style that was clear, colorful, and easily reproducible.
Originally a literary movement, Surrealism explored dreams, the unconscious mind, and the intersection of reality and imagination. Inspired by World War I destruction and Sigmund Freud's theories of the mind, early Surrealist artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Joan Miro created works featuring illogical juxtapositions and impossible realities to represent inner psychic processes. Their surreal paintings, filled with dreamlike and disturbing images, became popular in France and other European countries in the 1920s.
Pop art developed in the 1950s and originated from post-impressionism, fauvism, dadaism, and abstract expressionism. It featured imagery from popular culture and mass media in an emotionally detached style using bright colors and new technologies like silkscreening. Key figures included Richard Hamilton, Andy Warhol, and Roy Lichtenstein, who are known for works depicting celebrities, brand logos, and comic strips in a pop aesthetic.
This document provides an overview of art history from 15,000 BC to the present.

It describes common artistic mediums, styles, and influential artists throughout history. The document concludes by noting that art continues to change and evolve as artists seek new ways to create and share their work.
Cubism was an influential early 20th century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture. Led by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, Cubism involved depicting subjects from multiple viewpoints to represent the subject in a multidimensional way. Cubism was divided into two phases - Analytic Cubism from 1907 to 1912 focused on geometric forms, while Synthetic Cubism from 1912 to 1919 incorporated collage materials into compositions. Cubism's radical approach to depicting subjects without traditional perspective had a significant impact on modern art and design.
Abstract art is an independent creative art form that uses the basic elements of art and means of expression in two ways: geometric abstraction and lyrical abstraction. Geometric abstraction uses points, lines, and surfaces in compositions while lyrical abstraction opposed Cubism and Surrealism and includes styles like Tachism, Color Field painting, and Abstract Expressionism. Abstract art developed through different art movements and schools using pure colors and forms or through an analogy to music. Famous abstract artists include Piet Mondrian and Wassily Kandinsky.
Abstract Expressionism was a mid-20th century art movement centered in New York City. Artists applied paint forcefully and non-geometrically to large canvases to express inner emotions and feelings. There were two main techniques - action painting involving dripped and splattered paint, and color field painting using solid fields of color. Pioneering artists included Jackson Pollock, famous for his drip paintings, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko known for his blocks of color. Abstract Expressionism emphasized individual expression and made New York a new center for art.
Classical art adheres to principles established by ancient Greek and Roman master artists regarding the representation of the human form and its environment. It is usually based on religious or mythical figures, with idealized bodies in active poses. Order and harmony are emphasized over individual beauty. Neoclassical art was produced later but drew inspiration from classical works. It refers to the styles of artists like Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo during the Renaissance who were influenced by ancient classical principles and rules.

After World War 2, the art world underwent major changes and disruptions. Modernism shifted from Paris to New York City and took on a stricter formalism under the influence of Clement Greenberg. In Europe, art reflected existentialist themes of despair through works like Francis Bacon's painting. Abstract Expressionism emerged in New York featuring gestural paintings like Pollock's. Minimalism and Pop Art also emerged, simplifying forms and using imagery of mass culture. New movements challenged assumptions through Happenings, Conceptual art, and Land art. Architecture integrated sculpture and structure in works like Wright's Guggenheim Museum.
Abstract art is a form of visual art that does not attempt to represent or depict external reality, but instead uses colors, shapes, and textures to create a visual language of its own. The emphasis in abstract art is on the formal elements of art, such as line, color, and composition, rather than on representation of the world around us.
Abstract art emerged in the early 20th century as artists sought to move away from traditional forms of representation and create something new and original. It has since become a major movement in the art world, with many different styles and approaches to abstract art.
Some notable artists associated with abstract art include Wassily Kandinsky, Kazimir Malevich, Piet Mondrian, and Jackson Pollock. The movement has also influenced other forms of art, such as music, literature, and architecture.
Today, abstract art continues to evolve and push the boundaries of what we consider art to be. It remains a vibrant and exciting field for artists and art enthusiasts alike.

This document provides definitions and descriptions of various art movements and styles throughout history. It discusses major movements like Impressionism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Minimalism, and more. For each movement, it gives a brief overview of its key characteristics and time period. The overall document serves as a guide to understanding different categories and periods of art based on shared approaches, philosophies or visual qualities.
The document provides an overview of post-World War II art movements in New York City, including Abstract Expressionism and Modernist Sculpture. It discusses key artists like Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Helen Frankenthaler, Constantin Brancusi, Henry Moore, Alexander Calder, and David Smith. It describes the emergence of Abstract Expressionist styles like Action Painting and Color Field Painting in New York and how they pushed painting in new directions by emphasizing gesture, scale, and flatness over illusion.
The document summarizes major art movements that arose in the early 20th century, including Expressionism, Neo-Primitivism, Fauvism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Social Realism, Cubism, Futurism, the Mechanical Style, Non-Objectivism, and Abstract Expressionism. Expressionist artists distorted forms and used strong colors to express emotion over realistic representation. Later movements like Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism further departed from reality through techniques like fragmentation and dream-like imagery. Social realists used art to raise awareness of social issues. Abstractionism emerged with styles like Cubism that reduced forms to geometric shapes.
Post-Impressionism encompassed a variety of styles that responded to Impressionism's focus on optics and light. While styles varied, most Post-Impressionists concentrated on the subjective vision of the artist and symbolic or personal meanings over depicting the observed world. Paul Cézanne, Georges Seurat, and Paul Signac emphasized structure, order, color effects, and interrelations of color and shape rather than representation. Despite different styles, most Post-Impressionists focused on abstract form and thick paint application. The term "Post-Impressionism" was coined in 1910 by Roger Fry to describe Cézanne, Gauguin and Van Gogh who turned away from Impressionism.
The document discusses different artistic styles and movements including realism, abstraction, symbolism, fauvism, dadaism, futurism, and surrealism. It provides examples of prominent artists who worked in each style and descriptions of their techniques. Key points include defining realism as attempting to portray subjects accurately, abstraction as moving away from realistic depictions, and surrealism as revealing realities of the subconscious mind through fantasy elements. Examples are given of novels, paintings, and sculptures that exemplify these different artistic approaches.
The document provides an overview of the major art movements in the 20th century. It discusses how modern art reflected the changing times with cameras making realistic art obsolete and mass production making art marketable. Artists valued originality over beauty and would shock audiences if they couldn't please them. Key movements discussed include Fauvism, Cubism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, and Post-Modernism. Major artists from each movement like Picasso, Kandinsky, Pollock, and Warhol are also mentioned.
This document provides information on various artists and art movements from the Renaissance period to modern art. It discusses key High Renaissance artists like Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, and their followers. It also characterizes the Italian Renaissance as a period of rebirth and advancement in art using scientific principles. Finally, it outlines several modern art movements like Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, Surrealism and some of their defining characteristics and examples.
The document discusses key artists and art movements from 1901 to the 1950s. It mentions Pablo Picasso's 1901 self-portrait and the beginnings of abstract art with Kandinsky. It then discusses Expressionism, Cubism, Futurism, Constructivism, De Stijl, Suprematism, Dada, Surrealism and works by artists such as Picasso, Braque, Duchamp, Malevich, Tatlin, Mondrian, and others. Major works mentioned include Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, Fountain, and Guernica.
The document summarizes key artworks and movements from 1906-1937:
- Kandinsky's abstract painting "Improvisation 28" eliminated representational elements and used musical titles for inspiration.
- Kirchner's expressionist painting "Street, Dresden" used jarring colors and shapes to depict threatening figures.
- Rouault was a deeply religious artist who portrayed "wretched creatures" to indict human cruelty.
- Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" in 1907 introduced Cubism through fragmented, overlapping forms seen from multiple angles. He and Braque developed Cubism through works analyzing objects from different perspectives.
- Futurism glorified machines and modernity.
The document provides historical context for the development of modernist art in the early 20th century. Key events like World War I, advances in science, and the rise of ideologies like Marxism and nationalism led artists to reject observational naturalism.

2. Abstraction literally means the distancing of
an idea from objective referents.
Abstract art can be a painting or sculpture
that does not depict a person, place, or thing
in the natural world; even in an extremely
distorted or exaggerated way.
It often holds a secretive meaning for the
artist that is unknown to everyone else.
It has many sub-categories.

was settled well over a century ago.

experienced monumental changes in every
aspect of life. The European artists
felt a need to create a new kind of art
which would encompass these changes.

of abstract art, premiered the first
abstract painting to public. Though
the first abstract artwork was made
by a Swedish woman called
Hilma af Klint.
The acceptance of Abstract Art was
achieved during the Abstract
Expressionism Movement which went
on from 1940s-1950s.
