Learn more about the art movements that shaped art. You'll learn about Impressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, and Surrealism. These movements are usually categorized by their medium. Fauvism, for instance, is known for its unusual color combinations and bold brushwork. The French word for wild beast is Fauve, which means "fauve". Henri Matisse (andre derain), Maurice de Vlaminck and Kees vanDongen were some of the most important artists. Kathe Kolwitz and Wassily Kanninsky were also part of this movement. Pablo Picasso was also a major figure in this movement.
Post Impressionism
Post Impressionism is an art movement that emerged in the late 19th century. It features a variety of artistic styles. These styles were created to counter the Impressionist movement's visual qualities. They included works ranging in style from the Neo-Impressionism Georges Seurat up to the rich Symbolism Paul Gauguin. These works often highlighted the subjective visions of the artist.
Cubism
Cubism refers to a technique of art where painters simplify and analyze objects in a geometric manner. This approach simplifies the subject matter to emphasize multiple viewpoints. Unlike many other art movements, cubism isn't about cutting up real objects into cubes, but about geometrization - presenting reality in the form of a geometric structure such as a cubic, conic, cylinder, or circular plane. This method is also used to reveal the truth within art, i.e. the details of a photograph.
Fauvism
Fauvism was a temporary but powerful art movement that challenged traditional stylistic conventions. Its impact lasted just five year, but by then, the term "fauvist", a term that was widely used in art, was commonplace. Scores of artists began to call themselves "fauvist". The movement faced stiff competition from newcomers as well as artists. Many of the best artists were forced into re-adapting. Picasso's influence forced Matisse into a simpler style, while Cezanne forced Cezanne to bring the movement back to its original geometrical ethos.
Surrealism
Surrealism is a style of art that explores the unconscious, often by means of cryptic meaning. Although its early work was primarily literary, some of its most prominent artists, such as Max Ernst, used many other styles. Surrealist art was known for its juxtaposition of seemingly unrelated forms and objects.
Abstract Expressionism
Abstract Expressionism was an art movement that shunned traditional realism to emphasize the expression of emotions in abstract paintings. This movement was led by painters but other art forms were welcomed to participate. During its peak, the movement was dominated primarily by male artists. This led to misogyny, homophobic, and racially-restricted attitudes. Despite these traits, many female artists were producing artworks at this time. Despite this, women weren't included in books or literature about abstract expressionism.
Photorealism
Photorealism draws on many photographic images. There are many subjects to choose from, including portraits and simple household appliances. Artists who use this style of art see it as a way to document a rapidly changing world. For instance, the 1970s and 1980s saw a drastic decrease in locally owned retail businesses. The same time, big-box retail was booming. These stores would go on to grow and become major corporations. Many artists used the photorealism style to preserve this local American history.

What can pop music teach us?
Our society today places more importance on material goods than all other things. This is particularly true for young people. They spend hours every day looking at screens. They spend hours looking at screens, playing video games, and surfing the internet. They lose focus of school work because they are constantly distracted by these distractions. This leads to them failing classes.
It is a world where everyone wants in. That means being popular. Popularity hinges on having money, clothing, and other possessions. This makes it easy for some people to do wrong.
Technology has made us dependent. All information is available to us thanks to technology. Not all information is correct. Many false rumors circulate on the Internet. These rumors quickly spread because people share them through social media. It's easy for people to post things without checking if they are true.
People are losing their ability to think critically. They believe what they see online. They believe everything they read in magazines and on television. They stop thinking for their own sake. They follow the crowd instead.
We lose control of our lives when we depend on others to tell we what's going on. Pop culture encourages us to rely on others. It can also make us lazy. While the truth is often out there, we don't always know it.
