    EXPRESSIONISM

     This term is sometimes used to describe the way many Western artists from the late 19 th century
    onwards have deliberately distorted subject-matter, form and colour to express their (often
    unhappy) states of mind. More often it refers to two early 20 th century art movements based in
    Germany.
     There are two main groups.
    * Die Brucke (The Bridge)
    * Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider)

     The artist’s main purpose was to express emotions and/or sense of deeper reality, through
    vigorous brushstokes, or distortion or exaggeration of shapes and colours.

     The arrival of Expressionism announced new standards in the creation or judgment of art.
    Broke away from the literal representation of nature in order to express more subjective
    outlooks or states of mind.
    Edvard Munch
    (1863-1944)
    Norwegian painter
    The Scream or the Cry and graphic artist
    FUTURISM

     Emerged in Northern Italy just before the First World War. Its founders celebrated
    contemporary urban life, and rejected artistic tradition. In their first manifesto (1908), they said
    “…the splendour of the world has been enriched with a new form of beauty, the beauty of
    speed.

     Speed is a key feature of modern life.

     The key focus was the depiction of movement.

    OP ART

     Short for optical art.

     Flourished in the late 1950s and 1960s.

     Most Op artists worked out their geometrical images carefully in advance, using scientific
    theories to make them appear to move.

     The result is unusual in art, in that it actually evokes a physical response, not just an emotional
    or psychological one.

     It became a very trendy movement and had a big influence on fashion.

    Dreams.
