ORIGINS OF THE MOVEMENT

Origins of the Civil Rights Movement. African Americans became increasingly restive in the postwar
years. During the war they had challenged discrimination in the military services and in the work force,
and they had made limited gains.

IMPRESSIONISM :A BREAK FROM PAST PAINTING TRADITIONS

Impressionism is a rebellion, of sorts, against the established hierarchy of arts in France, where the
Académie des Beaux-Arts would select works to be displayed for exhibition. This gave Académie des
Beaux-Arts—the Royal Academy, much like that of England—a monopoly on influence and access to
critics who’s articles could draw public attention to artists (Samu).
 Woman Seated under the Willows — 1880 —
Claude Monet
Monet was a French painter, born in 1840. His painting Impression, Sunrise (1873)—or
rather a disparaging quip about it, and the work of his fellow artists at their 1874
exhibition—is where Impressionist get their name (National Gallery).
Monet was known for his brush work and his interest in light. He painted several series
of works of the same subject, such as the Rouen Cathedral, painted at different times of
day and under different weather conditions

Dancers Backstage — 1876-1883 — Edgar Degas

Degas, born in 1834, was also a French painter. Though he was one of the founding
members of the Impressionist movement—showing in six of their exhibitions—Degas
preferred the term Realist when it came to his work (NG). He lived and worked primarily
in Paris.Degas was known for his composition style, creating works from unconventional
angles and views. His models were most often from the working class, and he was also
fond of using pastels and innovative combinations of media in his works. Unlike other
Impressionist, he painted in a studio, rather than outdoors.
 Moonlight on the Waters — 1891 — Frank
Weston Benson
Frank Weston Benson, born 1862, was an American Impressionist painter. He was a
founding member of The Ten—a group of artist that split from the Society of American
Artists in 1897 (NG). He taught art at a few places, starting in 1881, including the
Boston Museum School where he taught from 1889-1912 (NG).
Benson is known for his paintings of birds, landscapes, and “serene paintings of women
and children” (NG). Benson used a variety of mediums including oil paint, etching,
watercolor, and wash painting (NG)

Modern Art Nouveau

Art Nouveau continues to influence artist today–in particular Mucha continues to
influence. For instance A’Shop’s Our Lady Of Grace Mural, painted on a five story
building in Montreal in 2014, was heavily influenced by Mucha’s art. The Girl Genius is
an ongoing “gaslamp fantasy” graphic novel series by Phil and Kaja Foglio, in which
they incorporate Art Nouveau elements into their work. This can be seen prominently in
their splash-page illustration for Spark Roast.
-IMPRESSIONISM :WORKS OF MONET, RENOIR, AND MANET

Philadelphia Museum of Art - Exhibitions - Manet and the Sea. This show is the first to explore the
marine paintings of Edouard Manet and his contemporaries, including such Impressionists as Claude
Monet, Auguste Renoir and Berthe Morisot, who were deeply influenced by Manet's seascapes.

-POST IMPRESSIONISM: WORKS OF CEZANNE AND VAN GOGH

The work of Post-Impressionist French painter Paul Cézanne, born in Aix-en-Provence in 1839, can be
said to have formed the bridge between late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century's
new line of artistic inquiry, Cubism.Jun 29, 2014

n 1886 van Gogh relocated to Paris and was greatly influenced by Impressionism and Post-
impressionism, and gained exposure to artists such as Gauguin, Pissarro,Monet, and Bernard.
As a result, he adopted brighter, more vibrant colors in his art and began experimenting with his
technique.

CONTEMPORARY ART FORMS SUCH AS : INSTALLATION ARTS AND PERFORMANCE ARTS

"The term Contemporary Performance is used to describe hybrid performance works and artists that
travel between the fields of Experimental Theatre & Dance, Video Art, Visual Art, Music Composition
and Performance Art without adhering to one specific field's practice."

Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that often are site-specific and designed
to transform the perception of a space.
