The document provides an overview of different art styles and periods including Baroque, Gothic, Expressionism, Surrealism, Realism, Impressionism, Cubism, and Renaissance art. Baroque architecture was characterized by oval shapes and wavy walls. Gothic cathedrals emphasized verticality through pointed arches, stained glass, and flying buttresses. Expressionism distorts forms and uses heavy lines while Surrealism stresses subconscious imagery and unexpected juxtapositions. Realism and Impressionism aim to capture realistic visual experiences through accurate forms and light, while Cubism reduces shapes to geometric equivalents. Renaissance art was inspired by classical ideals of balance, harmony and intellectual order.
