Modernism emerged in the late 19th century as artists sought new styles and materials to break from historical conventions. Neo-expressionism arose in the 1970s in response to minimalism and conceptual art, bringing back traditional painting techniques. Abstract expressionism used brushstrokes and texture to convey emotion through the act of painting itself and was exemplified by artists like Pollock, Rothko, and de Kooning. Optical art exploited optical illusions through techniques like perspective illusion and chromatic tension to create the impression of movement, as seen in the works of Vasarely.

Art movements
The Cubist art movement began in Paris around 1907 and was led by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. They broke from artistic tradition by rejecting single-point perspective and instead depicting subjects from multiple viewpoints simultaneously. Cubism influenced many later artists and was divided into Analytic and Synthetic phases. Major Cubist artists included Picasso, Braque, Fernand Leger, and Juan Gris.
Modern Arts (MAPEH)
Modern art began in the 1860s and encompassed new styles and philosophies that rejected traditions of the past. Artists experimented with new materials, techniques, and theories of how art should represent the world. Major developments included Impressionism in the late 19th century, which focused on capturing light and color, Post-Impressionism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract art, Pop art, and Optical art in the early-mid 20th century. These movements further rejected conventions and emphasized subjective experience, fragmented forms, and imagery from dreams.
Postmodernism
Postmodernism began as a reaction against modernism in art in the 20th century. It questioned master narratives and ideas of single meanings, instead seeing the viewer as helping determine a work's meaning. It included styles like conceptual art, minimalism, video art, performance art, and installation art. Key artists mentioned include Justin Michael Jenkins, Max Book, and Aydin Aghdashloo. Important works discussed are Roy Lichtenstein's Whaam!, Damien Hirst's Away from the Flock, and Jeff Koons' New Hoover Convertibles. Postmodernism has had influence beyond art and tried to replace ideas of the future with an eternal present.

Week 9 abstract expressionism
Abstract Expressionism emerged in the late 1940s as a radical new art movement in America that focused on formal qualities and emphasized the autonomy of art over political or social concerns; critics like Clement Greenberg championed Abstract Expressionism and formalism, arguing that art should separate itself from mass culture and popular tastes through an emphasis on formal innovation and medium-specific purity; Greenberg's theories helped establish Abstract Expressionism as the leading avant-garde movement in America and positioned it as an anti-communist symbol during the Cold War era.
Abstract expressionism1
Abstract Expressionism was a post-World War II art movement that began in New York in the 1940s and 1950s. Artists used non-traditional techniques like action painting to express themselves freely without a specific subject. Two main concepts were energetic gestures using impulsive brushwork and large fields of color. Major artists included Jackson Pollock, known for his drip technique paintings, Mark Rothko who created emotional color field paintings, Willem de Kooning who painted abstracted figures and landscapes, and Lee Krasner, Pollock's wife. The movement marked a shift to American modern art and freedom of expression.

Abstractionism developed alongside Expressionism in the early 20th century. It emphasized logical and rational concepts like space, time, and relativity over emotional expression. Artists abstracted scenes into geometric shapes, patterns, and colors. Cubism derived from cubes and depicted subjects from multiple perspectives by analyzing and reassembling geometric forms. Futurism celebrated the modern industrial world through mechanized, high-speed depictions of machines. Piet Mondrian's nonobjective works used only primary colors and black and white lines and shapes without recognizable objects.

Impressionist paintings use small brush strokes and emphasize light/color. Futurism glorified modern technology and themes of speed/violence. Classicism seeks formal restraint. Avant-garde is experimental and pushes boundaries. Abstract art uses visual elements to create compositions independent of visual references. Primitivism borrows from non-Western forms. Icons are religious paintings in Eastern Christianity.
Minimalism
Minimalism started in the 1960s in New York and aimed to remove elements of self-expression from art. Minimalist artists used industrial materials and focused on simple geometric forms and colors to create artworks that referred only to themselves. Some notable minimalist artists mentioned include Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd, Frank Stella, and Carl Andre. LeWitt's modular cubes and Stella's bright geometric paintings exemplified the movement. Minimalism emphasized neutrality and influenced later modern architecture through figures like Mies van der Rohe. Some Filipino artists also explored minimalism, like Constancio Bernardo's abstract meditative works.

of art shown below. You should reference your book to aid you in answering these questions. Answers should be in essay format, be a minimum of three-five sentences each, and include at least three terms from the glossary for each work.
The following are glossary terms for the week to be used with your work this week. You do not need to utilize them all; however, you need to utilize at least three of these terms per assignment response. Please note that some terms are carried over from previous weeks as they apply. Still, you should review all terms each week.
Abstract Expressionism
Also known as the New York School. The first major American avant-garde movement, Abstract Expressionism emerged in New York City in the 1940s. The artists produced abstract paintings that expressed their state of mind and that they hoped would strike emotional chords in viewers. The movement developed along two lines: gestural abstraction and chromatic abstraction.
Action painting
Also called gestural abstraction. The kind of Abstract Expressionism practiced by Jackson Pollock, in which the emphasis was on the creation process, the artist's gesture in making art. Pollock poured liquid paint in linear webs on his canvases, which he laid out on the floor, thereby physically surrounding himself in the painting during its creation.
Assemblage
An artwork constructed from already existing objects.
Chromatic abstraction
A kind of Abstract Expressionism that focused on the emotional resonance of color, as exemplified by the work of Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko.
Color field painting
A variant of Post-Painterly Abstraction in which artists sought to reduce painting to its physical essence by pouring diluted paint onto unprimed canvas, allowing these pigments to soak into the fabric, as exemplified by the work of Helen Frankenthaler and Morris Louis.
Conceptual art
An American avant-garde art movement of the 1960s that asserted that the "artfulness" of art lay in the artist's idea rather than its final expression.
Deconstruction
An analytical strategy developed in the late 20th century according to which all cultural "constructs" (art, architecture, and literature) are "texts." People can read these texts in a variety of ways, but they cannot arrive at fixed or uniform meanings. Any interpretation can be valid, and readings differ from time to time, place to place, and person to person. For those employing this approach, deconstruction means destabilizing established meanings and interpretations while encouraging subjectivity and individual differences.
Earthworks
An American art form that emerged in the 1960s. Often using the land itself as their material, Environmental artists construct monuments of great scale and minimal form. Permanent or impermanent, these works transform some section of the environment, calling attention both to the land itself and to the hand of the artist. Sometimes referred.

Any interpretation can be valid, and readings differ from time to time, place to place, and person to person. For those employing this approach, deconstruction means destabilizing established meanings and interpretations while encouraging subjectivity and individual differences.

Midterm Review
In the 1940s, surrealist artists fled to New York City where abstract expressionism developed as the dominant avant-garde movement, influenced by surrealism and existentialism. This diminished figuration and emphasized pure expression and the flatness of the canvas. Meanwhile in Europe, art informel emerged as the equivalent to abstract expressionism. By the 1950s, pop art began as a critique of modernism by embracing popular culture, while minimalism stripped art down to basic materials and forms.

Contemporary Art Essay
Modern art emerged in the late 1800s as artists broke from traditional styles and subjects to experiment. Two influential modern works were Jay DeFeo's giant painting "The Jewel" from 1958-1959 and Frantisek Kupka's "Irregular Forms: Creation." While using the same medium of oil paint on canvas, the works conveyed very different feelings. DeFeo's piece was lush and organic, while Kupka's had a sense of movement and energy. Contemporary art continued experimenting with new styles, subjects, and mediums in the 20th century while also addressing social and political issues of the time.
Abstract Art Presentation By Anuj Kumar Maurya
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.

Conceptual art emerged in the 1960s as a reaction against formalism and the commodification of art. It privileged ideas and concepts over physical objects. Pioneers like Marcel Duchamp and later artists such as Joseph Kosuth, Sol LeWitt, and Bruce Nauman created conceptual works that consisted of photographs, texts, maps, or instructions that diverted attention from aesthetics to underlying ideas.
