MODERN ART
The modern art movement encompasses art produced from the 1860s to the 1970s. Art has always reflected the society and culture in which we live.
Art has a profound impact on people, evoking strong emotions, providing education, and breaking down barriers related to culture, society, and economy. Each artwork tells a unique story and showcases the artist's passion. As waves of social change occurred, art became a visual outlet for the overwhelming emotions experienced by the population. Notably, significant changes took place at the turn of the twentieth century, both in global affairs and the world of art. Artists boldly explored new and innovative ideas, setting aside traditional approaches.
Modern art embraces a wide variety of movements, theories, and attitudes whose modernism resides particularly in a tendency to reject traditional, historical, or academic forms and conventions in an effort to create an art piece more in keeping with changed social, economic, and intellectual conditions.
