Tensions escalated throughout the 1950s and 1960s, with events like the Cuban Missile Crisis bringing the world close to nuclear war.

However, the artists themselves claimed to be free from political ideology.

World War I had a major impact on the arts in the early 20th century. Several movements emerged in response, including Dadaism, which rejected tradition, and Surrealism, which focused on dreams.

In visual arts, abstract expressionism became popular in the mid-20th century, with painters like Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning focusing on the act of creation. Pop art emerged in the 1960s, as artists like Andy Warhol reflected mass culture.
