The document summarizes several modern art movements including Impressionism, Cubism, Abstract art, Op art, and Kinetic art. Impressionism is characterized by visible brush strokes and an emphasis on depicting light. Cubism revolutionized painting and sculpture in the early 20th century. Abstract art uses geometric forms and non-objective compositions. Op art uses optical illusions to create the impression of movement through black and white abstract works. Kinetic art incorporates motion and technology into sculptures and installations. Examples of artists associated with these movements are provided.

Abstract art based on
the use of geometric
forms sometimes,
though not always,
placed in non-
illusionistic space
and combined into
non-objective (non-
representational)
compositions.
Although the genre
was popularized
by avant-garde artists
in the early twentieth
century, similar
motifs have been
used in art since
ancient times.

2. Op art, short
for optical art, is a
style of visual art that
uses optical illusions.
Op art works are
abstract, with many
better known pieces
created in black and
white. Typically,
they give the viewer
the impression of
movement, hidden
images, flashing and
vibrating patterns, or
of swelling or
warping.
