    Modern art refers to artistic works produced from the 1860s to the 1970s that threw aside past traditions and emphasized experimentation. Artists experimented with new techniques like abstraction. Modern art began influenced by Van Gogh, Cézanne, Gauguin, and others. In the early 1900s, Fauvism introduced expressive landscapes and figures. Matisse's The Dance conveyed feelings of liberation. Picasso's cubist works like Les Demoiselles d'Avignon revolutionized art by depicting fragmented perspectives. Cubism was further developed through analytic and synthetic styles by Picasso, Braque, and others into the 1920s. Modern art is closely related to Modernism.

    M odern art, FORMS AND TECHNIQE refers to artistic works

    produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and
    denotes the style and philosophy of the art produced during that era. The term
    is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in
    a spirit of experimentation. Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with
    fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art. A tendency toward
    abstraction is characteristic of much modern art. More recent artistic production is often
    called Contemporary art or Postmodern art.

    Modern art begins with the heritage of painters like Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Paul
    Gauguin, Georges Seurat and Henri de Toulouse Lautrec all of whom were essential for the
    development of modern art. At the beginning of the 20th century Henri Matisse and
    several other young artists including the pre-cubist Georges Braque, André Derain, Raoul
    Dufy and Maurice de Vlaminck revolutionized the Paris art world with "wild", multi-
    colored, expressive, landscapes and figure paintings that the critics called Fauvism. Henri
    Matisse's two versions of The Dance signified a key point in his career and in the
    development of modern painting. It reflected Matisse's incipient fascination with primitive
    art: the intense warm color of the figures against the cool blue-green background and the
    rhythmical succession of the dancing nudes convey the feelings of emotional liberation and
    hedonism.

    Initially influenced by Toulouse Lautrec, Gauguin and other late 19th century innovators
    Pablo Picasso made his first cubist paintings based on Cézanne's idea that all depiction of
    nature can be reduced to three solids: cube, sphere and cone. With the painting Les
    Demoiselles d'Avignon 1907, Picasso dramatically created a new and radical picture
    depicting a raw and primitive brothel scene with five prostitutes, violently painted women,
    reminiscent of African tribal masks and his own new Cubist inventions. Analytic cubism
    was jointly developed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, exemplified by Violin and
    Candlestick, Paris, from about 1908 through 1912. Analytic cubism, the first clear
    manifestation of cubism, was followed by Synthetic cubism, practised by Braque, Picasso,
    Fernand Léger, Juan Gris, Albert Gleizes, Marcel Duchamp and several other artists into
    the 1920s. Synthetic cubism is characterized by the introduction of different textures,
    surfaces, collage elements, papier collé and a large variety of merged subject matter.

    The notion of modern art is closely related to Modernism.
