Modern Art: A Revolution in Artistic Expression at ANCIQ
The vibrant, extensive, and heterogeneous realm of contemporary arts is being lauded at ANCIQ. From the last decades of the 1800s to the middle of the 1900s, this modern painting segment describes an evolving period in artistic history characterized by exploration and deviation from classicism. This collection contains several distinct modern-day art pieces conveying a message about this influential period in history through their innovative flair and specific points of view.
The Evolution of Modern Art
Modern art emerged when artists started to contest established standards and delve into new modes of expression. This time was characterized by a departure from realistic representations to abstract and experimental patterns. Key figures such as Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, and Henri Matisse significantly contributed to the development of modern art through their courageous application of colors, shapes, and methods.
At the dawn of the 20th century, there were notable art movements like Fauvism, Cubism, and Expressionism, which significantly changed the landscape of modern art. It was also during this time that Henri Matisse, who loved colors that convey strong emotions, and Pablo Picasso, whose typical Cubism was characterized by broken and rearranged figures, emerged as leaders in their respective movements. Their works show an urge towards exploring new means of perceiving and picturing things around them.
Key Movements in Modern Art
Fauvism was one of the first movements to come out in what is called modern art, because of its use of vivid and non-naturalistic colors as well as bold use of brush stroke. Artists like André Derain or Matisse had different feelings about color compared to others who considered it to be only an imitation of nature. Their pieces sometimes have landscapes or portraits, but they never resemble any traditional type of art.
Cubism, a movement pioneered by Picasso and Georges Braque, took them this far in art. By breaking subjects divided into geometrical shapes, and presenting multiple viewpoints simultaneously. The movement further developed into Synthetic Cubism, which was characterized by the use of mixed media with collage elements suggesting a progressive approach towards a more intricate yet multi-directional style of painting.
Modern painting is inherently affected by expressionism and futurism. With an emphasis on emotions rather than depiction of reality, expressionism played an important role in modernism while, at the same time, celebrating motion and machines through futurism.
Modern Art and Contemporary Contexts
With the evolution of modern art, ground was laid for present day movements and practices. Today’s art is still affected by modern art; it is reflected in various styles and media all over again. The road that would later be taken by abstract expressionism, pop art and conceptualism was paved by abstract and experimental approaches employed by modernists.
On ANCIQ, we have both a selection of paintings that highlight the spirit and the essence of this transformative period. From the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, you will be able to perceive how artistic expression has developed through diverse modern art movements in our collection.
