The turn of the 20th century was a time rife with change, chiefly in the way in which people began to perceive civilization as a whole and its overall goal. The outbreak of World War I, or the supposed War to End All Wars, and the unprecedented devastation that ensued challenged the foundations of many cultures’ belief systems, which led to a great...
Often thought of as a necessitous precursor to the plentiful art movements formed under the Modernist umbrella, Post-Impressionism had its start in the waning years of the 19th century. It was made famous by the unforgettable works of Paul Cézanne, Georges Seurat, Vincent van Gogh, and others, as they focused on extending the limitations of the mov...
This famous avant-garde movement is credited with being one of the first of its kind to prosper at the start of the 20th century. Pioneered by Henri Matisse, Fauvism owed a significant debt to Impressionism, as it exhibited vibrant colors in order to capture landscapes and still-lifes. However, it became its own movement as Fauvists, such as Matiss...
Possibly the best-known art movement of the Modernist era, Cubism has come to be associated with one name in particular, Pablo Picasso.

Perhaps one of the most controversial movements of the Modernist era was Futurism, which, at a cursory glance, likened humans to machines and vice versa in order to embrace change, speed, and innovation in society while discarding artistic and cultural forms and traditions of the past. However, at the center of the Futurist platform was an endorsem...
A specifically English artistic movement, since its mouthpiece was the famed London-based magazine Blast, Vorticism followed in the same vein as Futurism in that it relished in the innovative advances of the machine age and embraced the possible virtues of dynamic change that were to follow. It was founded right before the start of WWI by the celeb...
As Cubism and Futurism spread west to Russia at the end of the 1910s, they were absorbed into the utopian spirit of the October Revolution, thus creating a new art movement known as Constructivism, which embraced theory that art should be “constructed” from modern industrial materials such as plastic, steel, and glass in order to serve a societal p...
Another uniquely Russian Modernist movement was Suprematism, started conjointly with Constructivism, though with a stronger emphasis and embracement of the abstraction capable by painting on a canvas. It is denoted as the first movement to utilize pure geometrical abstraction in painting. Kazimir Malevich is viewed as its founder, as he, along with...
The name De Stijl (Dutch for “The Style”) adequately sums up this movement’s aim while also characterizing their intentions on how to achieve that aim: with a simple, direct approach. Founded by a cohort of Dutch artists in Amsterdam that included Theo van Doesburg (who founded the group’s periodical De Stijl), Piet Mondrian, and Jacobus Johannes P...
Perhaps best summed up by the famous Dadaist poet Hugo Ball, the Dadaist goal of art was not to have art be “an end in itself, but [to be] an opportunity for the true perception and criticism of the times we live in.” And surely enough the times of Dadaism were filled with grief, destruction, and chaos, as they witnessed the rampant mass devastatio...
