Modern Art,
painting,
sculpture, and other forms of
20th-century art. Although scholars disagree as to precisely when the modern period began, they mostly use the term modern art to refer to art of the 20th century in Europe and the Americas, as well as in other regions under Western influence. The modern period has been a particularly innovative one. Among the 20th century’s most important contributions to the history of art are the invention of
abstraction (art that does not imitate the appearance of things), the introduction of a wide range of new artistic techniques and materials, and even the redefinition of the boundaries of art itself.
Comprehensive and readable by far a good introduction to Modern Painting from its roots in the work of
Cezannethrough;
Cubism,
Futurism, and
Surrealism and the early decades of 20th century and on to
Abstract Expressionism in the 1950's through out this period this movement has develops in the world of art.
