DISTORTION

Refers to that which is lengthened, protraction or extension.

ELONGATION

Showing subjects which are cut, lacerated, mutilated, or hacked with repeated blows.

geometrical shapes.

E.g. Paul Cezanne, George Braque, Pablo Picasso

SYMBOLISM

did not attempt to express ethical, philosophical, or psychological themes.

Most of these artists tried to paint pictures of comfort, joy, and pleasure.

They used extremely bright colors.

To a fauve, for example, a tree trunk need not be brown. It could be bright, red, purple, or any other color.

Important fauves: Andre Derain, Raoul Dufy, George Rouault

FAUVISM

reacted to what they believed were outworn traditions in art, and the evils they saw in society.

They tried to shock and provoke the public with outrageous pieces of writing, poetry recitals, and art exhibitions.

Much dadaic art was playful and highly experimental.

The name “dada” (French: “hobby horse”) was deliberately chosen because it was nonsensical.

E.g. Marcel Duchamp

DADAISM

Works that capture the speed and force of modern industrial society.

Subjects included automobiles, motorcycles, and railroad trains – subjects that express the explosive vitality of a modern city.

FUTURISM

Founded by Andre Breton weapon against the evil and

restrictions in the society Unlike Dadaism, it tries to

reveal a new and higher reality than that of daily life.

surrealists declare that a magical world – more beautiful than the real one – can be created in art and literature.

beauty sought by surrealism is violent and cruel.

try to shock the viewer or reader and show what they consider the deeper and truer part of human nature.

SURREALISM

necessity of a spiritual rebirth for man in an age that was fast becoming influenced by materialism

involving pathos, morbidity, defeat, violence or chaos, and tragedy.

EXPRESSIONISM

Presenting the real-life subject with emphasis on the impression left in the artist’s mind, particularly the effect of light on the object used as subject.

E.g. an apple on a table is presented not as entirely red, but with white areas showing the spots where the light rays fall upon.

Painters: Claude Monet, Edouard Manet, Edgar Degas, August Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Vincent Van Gogh
