Expressionism (1905-1920)

Expressionism was an artistic style from 1905-1920 in which artists sought to depict subjective emotions and responses to objects and events rather than objective reality. Color was highly intense and non-naturalistic, brushwork was free, and paint application was thick. Expressionist art was emotional and sometimes mystical, seen as an extension of Romanticism with roots in Van Gogh, Munch, and Ensor. Cubism from 1907-1914 presented multiple views of subjects in the same picture resulting in fragmented, abstracted paintings pioneered by Picasso and Braque, influenced by Cézanne's use of geometry. Surrealism from 1916-1950 was a cultural movement depicting unnerving, illogical scenes through techniques allowing

CUBISM
(1907-1914)
Cubism

Cubism was a new approach to


representing reality invented
around 1907–08 by Pablo
Picasso and Georges Braque.
They brought different views of
subjects together in the same
picture, resulting in paintings
that appear fragmented and
abstracted.
Paul Cézanne

• Cézanne is also widely regarded as a


pioneer of Modern art. Cézanne's use
of perspective and geometric shapes
predicted the multiple visible planes
and geometric compositions central to
the Cubist movement. Cézanne painted
in various styles, including landscapes,
portraits, and still lifes.
Cubism influence in our Country

• Cubism influenced Filipino


artists through art. For
instance, Filipino artists like
Vicente Manansala were
famous for exhibiting the
cubist theme. Manansala
addressed issues affecting
society like poverty rather
than nature.

SURREALISM
(1916-1950)
Surrealism is a cultural movement that
developed in Europe in the aftermath of
World War I in which artists depicted
unnerving, illogical scenes and developed
techniques to allow the unconscious mind
to express itself. Its aim was, according to
leader André Breton, to "resolve the
previously contradictory conditions of
dream and reality into an absolute reality,
a super-reality", or surreality. It produced
works of painting, writing, theatre,
filmmaking, photography, and other
media.
Works of Surrealism feature the element
of surprise, unexpected juxtapositions and
non sequitur. However, many Surrealist
artists and writers regard their work as an
expression of the philosophical
movement first and foremost (for
instance, of the "pure psychic
automatism" Breton speaks of in the first
Surrealist Manifesto), with the works
themselves being secondary, i.e. artifacts
of surrealist experimentation.

ABSTRACT
EXPRESSIONISM
(1940'S-1950'S)
•Surrealism isa a cultural movement that developed in Europe in
the aftermath of World War 1 in which artists depicted unnerving,
illogical scenes and developed techniques to allow the
unconscious mind to express itself. Surrealism is more than an
artistic style like it’s an artistic movement. Unlike other creative
movements, which can be characterized by themes of imagery,
color choices, or techniques, defining Surrealist art is slightly
harder to do.
•however, many Surrealist artists and writers regard their work as
an expression of the philosophical movement first and foremost,
with the works themselves being secondary, artifacts of surrealist
experimentation. Leader Breton was explicit in his assertion that
Surrealism was, above all, a revolutionary movement. At the time,
the movement was associated with political causes such as
communism and anarchism. It was influenced by the Dada
movement of the

OP ART
(1950'S-1960'S)
•Op art, also called optical art, branch
of mid-20th-century geometric abstract
art that deals with optical illusion.
•The effects of optical art can be based
either on perspective illusion or on chromatic
tension; in painting, the dominant medium of
Op art, the surface tension is usually
maximized to the point at which an actual
pulsation or flickering is perceived by the
