HISTORY
POST WAR TO CONTEMPORARY PERIOD
MODERN ART IN A NUTSHELL
• The Modern Art is a loose art movement that combines
several art movements that typical move away from the
traditional art style such as Abstraction and Dadaism.
• The Modern Art movement is sometimes associated with the
art style called Impressionism which is characterized by loose
brushstroke, bright and bold colors, and the usage of natural
light in paintings.
• "When you go out to paint try
to forget what object you have
before you - a tree, a house, a
field or whatever. Merely think,
here is a little square of blue,
here an oblong of pink, here a
streak of yellow, and paint it
just as it looks to you, the exact
color and shape, until it
emerges as your own naive
impression of the scene before
you."
• -Claude Monet

POST MODERN ART IN A
NUTSHELL
• Post modern was said to start with the Pop Art
movement. However, its quiet to difficult define
besides that it was meant to counter the
modernist vision of idealism and utopia. Post
modern art reflects skepticism and favors
complexities and contradiction rather than the
simplicity of the modern art.
• “Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with
inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new
films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams,
random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs,
trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only
things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do
this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is
invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother
concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any
case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not
where you take things from - it’s where you take them to.“
• - Jim Jarmusch
