13. INTRODUCTION
• In all of human history, art has
mirrored life in the community,
society, and the world in all its
colors, lines, shapes, and forms.
• The same has been true in the last
two centuries ,with world events and
global trends being reflected in the
art movements.
14. • The decades from 1900 to the
present have seen the human race
living in an ever shrinking planet.
• The 20th century saw a boom in the
interchange of ideas, beliefs, values,
and lifestyles that continues to bring
the citizens of the world closer
together.
17. Impressionism
• was an art movement that emerged in the
second half of the 19th century among a
group of Paris-based artists.
• The duration of the impressionist movement
itself was quite short, less than 20 years from
1872 to the mid-1880s.
• But it had a tremendous impact and influence
on the painting styles that followed, such as
neo-impressionism, post-impressionism,
fauvism, and cubism—and even the artistic
18. The name impressionism was coined from the title of
a work by French painter Claude Monet, Impression,
soleil levant (in English, Impression, Sunrise).
Impression,
Sunrise
Claude Monet,
1872
Oil on canvas
19. The Influence of Delacroix
• One major influence was the work of French
painter Eugène Delacroix.
• Delacroix was greatly admired and emulated
by the early impressionists—specifically
for his use of expressive brushstrokes,
• his emphasis on movement rather than on
clarity of form, and most of all his study of
the optical effects of color.
20. The Barque of Dante
Eugène Delacroix, 1822
Oil on canvas
21. When studied closely, it is seen that four different, unmixed
pigments—yellow, green, red, and white—create the image
of each drop and its shadow. Viewed from a little distance,
these colors blend to represent individual drops glistening
with light. The distinct colors merge in the eye of the viewer
to appear monochromatic (single-colored) or, in this case of
water droplets, colorless. In short, an impression is formed.
22. Impressionism:
A Break from Past Painting
Traditions
There were several areas in which impressionist
artists moved away from the established practices of
art at that time. These involved their use :
color,
Choice of subject matter and setting, and
technique for capturing light and conveying
movement.
23. • Color and Light
• Everyday Subject
• Painting Outdoors
• Open Composition
• The Influence of Photography
24. WHAT TO KNOW
1. How did the term impressionism originate? What did it
mean?
2. In what country did this art movement begin, and in what
period of history?
3. What was the significance of the painting technique used
by Delacroix in the development of the impressionist style?
4. What characteristics distinguished impressionism from
the art movements of the earlier centuries? Cite and briefly
describe at least three of these characteristics.
5. How was the impressionist style influenced by the early
stages of photography?
25. WHAT TO PROCESS
To help you understand the revolutionary technique for applying color
introduced by the impressionists, experiment with this simplified
process:
1. Take a set of watercolors (cake type or in tubes). Choose one
secondary color: orange, green, or violet.
2. Color a shape on a paper using this single secondary color.
3. Beside it, color a similar shape using strokes of the two primary
colors that are combined in that particular secondary color (ex: red +
yellow = orange; blue + yellow = green; red + blue = violet).
4. Hold the paper some distance away and ask your classmates to
comment on the “impression” of the secondary color you have
created and the actual color itself.
27. EDOUARD MANET (1832-1883)
• was one of the first 19th century
artists to depict modern-life subjects.
• He was a key figure in the transition
from realism to impressionism, with a
number of his works considered as
marking the birth of modern art.

33. AUGUSTE RENOIR
• (1841-1919), along with Claude Monet,
was one of the central figures of the
impressionist movement.
• His early works were snapshots of real life,

37. • After the brief yet highly influential period of
impressionism, an outgrowth movement known as
post-impressionism emerged.
• The European artists who were at the forefront of this
movement continued using the basic qualities of the
impressionists before them—the vivid colors, heavy
brush strokes, and true-to-life subjects.
• However, they expanded and experimented with these
in bold new ways, like using a geometric approach,
fragmenting objects and distorting people’s faces and
body parts, and applying colors that were not
necessarily realistic or natural.
38. PAUL CEZANNE (1839–1906)
• was a French artist and post
impressionist painter.
• His work exemplified the transition from
late 19th-century impressionism to a new
and radically different world of art in the
20th century—paving the way for the
next revolutionary art movement known
as expressionism.

• was a post-impressionist painter from the
Netherlands.
• His works were remarkable for their strong,
heavy brush strokes, intense
emotions, and colors that appeared to almost
pulsate with energy.
• Van Gogh’s striking style was to have a far-
reaching influence on 20th century art, with
his works becoming among the most
recognized in the world.

46. WHAT TO PROCESS
Creating Your Own Impressionist
Artwork
Materials: Bond paper long

impressionist artwork
2. Using a pencil, sketch in the general design on the
bond paper.
3. Apply color in your drawing.
48. • In the early 1900s, there arose in the Western
art world a movement that came to be
known as expressionism.
• Expressionist artists created works with more
emotional force, rather than with realistic or
natural images.
• To achieve this, they distorted outlines,
applied strong colors, and exaggerated forms.
• They worked more with their imagination
and feelings, rather than with what their eyes
saw in the physical world.
49. Among the various styles that arose
within the expressionist art movements
were:
neoprimitivism
fauvism
dadaism
surrealism
social realism
50. Neoprimitivism
• was an art style that incorporated elements
from the native arts of the South Sea
Islanders and the wood carvings of African
tribes which suddenly became popular at
that time.
• Among the Western artists who adapted
these elements was AmedeoModigliani, who
used the oval faces and elongated shapes
of African art in both his sculptures and
paintings.
52. Fauvism
• was a style that used bold, vibrant colors and
visual distortions.
• Its name was derived from les fauves
(“wild beasts”), referring to the group of
French expressionist painters who painted
in this style.
• Perhaps the most known among them was
Henri Matisse.
53. Woman with Hat
Henri Matisse, 1905

Blue Window
Henri Matisse, 1911

54. Dadaism
• was a style characterized by dream fantasies, memory images, and
visual tricks and surprises—as in the paintings ofMarc Chagall and
Giorgio de Chirico below.
• Although the works appeared playful, the movement arose from
the pain that a group of European artists felt after the suffering
brought by World War I.
• Wishing to protest against the civilization that had brought on
such horrors, these artists rebelled against established norms
and authorities, and against the traditional styles in art. They
chose the child’s term for hobbyhorse, dada, to refer to their new
“non-style.”
55. Melancholy and Mystery of a Street I and the Village
Giorgio de Chirico, 1914 Marc Chagall, 1911
Oil on canvas Oil on canvas
56. Surrealism
• was a style that depicted an illogical,
subconscious dream world beyond
the logical, conscious, physical one.
• Its name came from the term “super realism,”
with its artworks clearly expressing a
departure from reality—as though the
artists were dreaming, seeing illusions, or
experiencing an altered mental state.
58. Diana Personages with Star
Paul Klee, 1932 Joan Miro, 1933
Oil on wood Oil on canvas
59. Social Realism
• The movement known as social realism.
expressed the artist’s role in social reform.
• Here, artists used their works to protest against
the injustices, inequalities, immorality, and
ugliness of the human condition.
• In different periods of history, social realists have
addressed different issues: war, poverty,
corruption, industrial and environmental hazards,
and more—in the hope of raising people’s
awareness and pushing society to seek reforms.
62. Abstractionism
• Another group of artistic styles emerged
at the same time as the expressionist
movement.
• It had the same spirit of freedom of
expression and openness that
characterized life in the 20th century, but it
differed from expressionism in certain
ways. This group of styles was known as
abstractionism.
63. Oval Still Life (Le Violon)
Georges Braque, 1914
Oil on canvas
65. Cubism
• The cubist style derived its name from
the cube, a three dimensional geometric
figure composed of strictly measured
lines, planes, and angles.
• Cubist artworks were, therefore, a play
• of planes and angles on a flat surface.
Foremost among the cubists
was Spanish painter/sculptor Pablo
Picasso
66. Three Musicians Girl Before a Mirror (detail)
Pablo Picasso, 1921 Pablo Picasso, 1932

67. Futurism
• the futurists created art for a fast-
paced, machine-propelled age.
• They admired the motion, force,
speed, and strength
of mechanical forms.
69. Mechanical Style
• As a result of the futurist movement,
what became known as the
mechanical style emerged.
• In this style, basic forms such as
planes, cones, spheres, and
cylinders all fit together precisely and
neatly in their appointed places
71. Nonobjectivism
• The logical geometrical conclusion of
abstractionism came in the style known
as nonobjectivism.
• From the very term “non-object,” works
in this style did not make use of figures
or even representations of figures.
• They did not refer to recognizable
objects or forms in the outside world.

75. WHAT TO PROCESS
A. For Expressionism
Create a Work of “Social Realism”
1. With your group mates, choose a current issue in society that you
feel needs to be addressed.
2. Select art materials that are readily available, such as one whole
sheet of cartolina; acrylic paints, poster paints, or any available
paints; markers, crayons, pastels, or colored pencils; #8 brush;
scissors; glue or paste; and pictures from magazines, newspapers, or
calendars.
3. Working as a group, plan how to use these materials to express
your message about your chosen social issue.
4. Assign a task to each group member, then create your artwork
together. (Note: Remember that expressionism made use of very
strong images and colors, and expressed deep emotions.)
5. Decide on a title for your group artwork.
76. B. For Abstractionism
Groups A, B, C: Create a “Picasso”
1. Review the description of Picasso’s cubist style.
2. Based on this, plan a cubist artwork for your group to
create.
3. Prepare a magazine, assorted photographs, 1 sheet of
oslo paper, scissors, and glue or paste.
4. Select a large photograph from the magazine and/or the
other photos, and cut these up into segments of different
shapes and sizes.
5. Glue or paste the segments on the oslo paper in a
creative way, but with the image still recognizable.
6. Give your cubist artwork a title.
78. • World events in the mid-20th century
immensely influenced the course of
human life and, with it, the course of art
history.
• World War I (1913-1914) and World
War II (1941-1945), in particular, shifted the
political, economic, and cultural world
stage away from Europe and on to the
“New World” continent, America.
79. Action Painting
• One form of abstract expressionism was
seen in the works of Jackson Pollock.
• These were created through what came to
be known as “action painting.”
80. Pollock worked on huge canvases spread on the floor, splattering, squirting, and
dribbling paint with (seemingly) no pre-planned pattern or design in mind.
82. Color Field Painting
• In contrast to the vigorous gestures of the
action painters, another group of artists
who came to be known as “color field painters”
used different color saturations (purity,
vividness, intensity)
• to create their desired effects. Some of their
works were huge fields of vibrant color—as
in the paintings of Mark Rothko and Barnett
Newman.

85. The movements they brought
about have come to be called:
neodadaism and pop art
conceptual art
op art
the new realism
86. Neodadaism
• 1960s wanted to make reforms in traditional
values.
• It also made use of commonplace, trivial,
even nonsensical objects. But unlike the
angry, serious tone of the original dadaists,
the neodadaists seemed to enjoy nonsense
for its own sake and simply wanted to laugh
at the world.
87. Pop Art ( from popular)
• Their works ranged from paintings, to posters,
to collages, to three-dimensional
“assemblages” and installations.
• These made use of easily recognizable objects
and images from the emerging consumer
society—as in the prints of Andy Warhol.
• Their inspirations where the celebrities ,
advertisements, billboards and comic strips
that where becoming common place at that
time
88. Twelve Cars Marilyn Monroe

91. Conceptual Art
• was that which arose in the mind of the
artist, took concrete form for a time, and
then disappeared (unless it was captured in
photo or film documentation).
• Conceptualists questioned the idea of art as
objects to be bought and sold. Instead, they
brought their artistic ideas to life temporarily,
using such unusual materials as grease,
blocks of ice, food, even just plain dirt.
92. One and Three Chairs
Joseph Kosuth, 1965
An actual chair (center), with a photograph of the same
chair an enlarged copy of dictionary definition of a chair.
93. Op Art
• Another movement that emerged in the
1960s was optical art or “op art.”
• This was yet another experiment in visual
experience—a form of “action painting,” with
the action taking place in the viewer’s
eye.
• In op art, lines, spaces, and colors were
precisely planned and positioned to give the
illusion of movement

modify the way the viewer experiences a
particular space.
• Usually life size or sometimes even larger,
installation art is not necessarily confined to
gallery spaces.
• It can be constructed or positioned in
everyday public or private spaces, both
indoor and outdoor.
108. Performance art
• is a form of modern art in which the actions of an
