Surrealism and abstract realism
Surrealism sought to channel the unconscious through fantastic imagery to unlock the power of imagination. Surrealists believed revelations could be found in everyday life, allowing artists to forgo conscious thought and embrace chance. Max Ernst, Salvador Dali, and Joan Miro were famous surrealist artists known for outlandish, perplexing works.
Art impressionism and expressionism
Impressionism developed in the late 19th century and focused on capturing fleeting impressions of light and color. Artists like Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, and Morisot painted outdoors in small brush strokes to depict landscapes, cityscapes, and everyday scenes. They held an exhibition in 1874 that helped name the Impressionist movement. Expressionism emerged later and focused more on conveying personal emotions and reactions to the modern world through distorted forms and bold colors as seen in works by Munch and Van Gogh.
Monet power point
Monet painted "Water Lillies" in 1916 at the age of 76 while struggling with cataracts in his eyes. Around this time, he had developed cataracts, a disease that clouds the lens of the eyes, making it difficult to see objects clearly. Despite his vision problems, Monet continued painting scenes from his garden, which had become his preferred subject matter. There are over 24 paintings by Monet titled "Water Lillies" that depict his garden pond in different ways.
Claude Monet
Claude Monet was an important Impressionist painter who used new techniques like layering colors of paint without outlines to capture changing colors and shadows throughout the day. He is best known for his many paintings of his garden pond in Giverny, especially his water lily paintings where he experimented with reflecting light and color in the water.
Impresionism
Impressionism was a 19th century art movement known for relatively small, thin brush strokes; an emphasis on light and accurate depiction of changing light effects; common subject matter; inclusion of movement; and unusual angles. Impressionist paintings used short, thick strokes of unmixed paint applied side-by-side to create vibrant colors, with grays produced using complements and an avoidance of black paint. They emphasized the play of natural light and reflection of colors across objects, often painting outdoors to capture fresh shadows and evening effects.

Art History
Impressionism was a 19th century art movement known for using brush strokes and colors to blend objects together to create a dreamy effect, as seen in Monet's Impression, Sunrise, which gave the movement its name. Key Impressionist artists included Monet, who painted outdoors scenes like haystacks and cathedrals focusing on the effects of light, and Vincent Van Gogh, who was initially somber but later experimented with Impressionism and developed his own Expressionist style, as shown in his famous work The Starry Night.
Giacomo Balla

印象派：传统艺术和现代艺术的分水岭
Impressionist painting emerged in the late 19th century in France led by artists such as Monet, Manet, Degas, Pissarro, Renoir, Cézanne, Van Gogh, and Gauguin. While influenced by realism, Impressionists focused on accurately depicting individual feelings and perceptions of light, color, and atmosphere through loose brushstrokes rather than social or historical narratives.
