2. Let's start this presentation with "very interesting" information
MODERN ART - a collection of artistic practices that
emerged in the second half of the twentieth century.
3. Contemporary art was formed at the turn of the
1960s and 70s. Artistic quests of that time can be
characterized as seeking alternatives to modernism
The art process, from the 80's, has greatly influenced the
development of technologies - video, audio, computers and the
Internet - it greatly expanded the means used by artists.
4. Contemporary art is divided into:
• Sots - art
• Op - art
• Pop - art
• Super-flat
• street - art.
5. Sots-art arises in the art of the 1970's - early 1990's. Artists
of social art enjoyed in their works stylistics, language and
conquest of socialist realism. However, there are humorous,
ironic and sarcastic attitudes towards ideological propaganda
expressions in the works of artists.
6. Op-art (optical art) - neo-avant-garde flow of fine arts. With
long-term contemplation on the picture, the visual effect of the
motion of the parts of the composition should appear, but the picture
remains motionless.
7. Pop art (popular art) - art that creates a shocking effect - neo-avant-garde current.
Pop art has become widespread since the second half of the twentieth
century. Representatives of this direction reproduce typical things of modern
life, popular printed images of well-known personalities, cuttings from
newspapers or include these objects. Representatives of pop art believed that
artistic significance can be seen in any subject, using and combining different
compositions in their compositions.
8. Superflat - a term coined by modern Japanese artist Takashi
Murakami. The term "superflat" was created to explain the new
visual language, actively used by the generation of young Japanese
artists: "I was thinking about the realities of the Japanese painting
and painting, and how they differ from Western art. For Japan, an
important sense of the plane. Our culture does not possess 3D
forms. 2D forms, approved in the history of Japanese art, simple,
flat visual arts of modern animation, comics and graphic design. "
9. Street art is a trend in contemporary fine arts, a distinctive feature of
which is a pronounced urbanized character. The main part of the art street is
graffiti (or spray-art), but it can not be assumed that street art is graffiti. To
street art also include posters (non-commercial), stencils, various sculptural
installations .. In street art, every detail, trifle, shadow, color, line is
important. The artist creates his stylized logo - "unique sign" and depicts it
on the areas of the urban landscape. The most important thing in street art is
not to assign the territory, but to draw the viewer into dialogue and show a
different plot programmed.
