14. DIFFERENT TYPES
OF PAINTINGS

16. Cubism was invented around 1907 in Paris by Pablo Picasso and Georges
Braque.
Cubism was the first abstract style of modern art.
A Cubist painting ignores the traditions of perspective drawing and shows
you many views of a subject at one time.
The Cubists introduced collage into painting.
The Cubists were influenced by art from other cultures, particularly African
masks.
There are two distinct phases of the Cubist Style: Analytical Cubism (pre
1912) and Synthetic Cubism (post 1912)
Cubism influenced many other styles of modern art including
Orphism, Futurism,
Vorticism, Suprematism, Constructivism and Expressionism.

22. Expressionism

23. The 'self expression' in the art of Vincent Van Gogh and Edvard Munch inspired Expressionist
artists in the 20th century.
German Expressionism also drew inspiration from Fauvism, German Gothic and 'primitive art'.
German Expressionism was divided into two factions: Die Brücke and Der Blaue Reiter
Die Brücke (The Bridge) was an artistic community of young Expressionist artists in Dresden.
Their aim was to overthrow the conservative traditions of German art. Their 'bridge' was the path
to a new and better future for German art.
Der Blaue Reiter was a publication of essays on the Expressionist art forms. The aim of Der
Blaue Reiter exhibitions was to find the common creative ground between these diverse art
forms.
After the various Expressionist groups disbanded, Expressionism spread and evolved in the work
of many individual artists across the world.

29. Fauvism

30. Fauvism was a style of painting developed in France
at the beginning of the 20th century by Henri
Matisse and André Derain.
The artists who painted in this style were known as
'Les Fauves'.
The title 'Les Fauves' (the wild beasts) came from a
sarcastic remark by the art critic Louis Vauxcelles.
Les Fauves believed that colour should be used to
express the artist's feelings about a subject, rather
than simply to describe what it looks like.
Fauvist paintings have two main characteristics:
simplified drawing and exaggerated colour.
Les Fauves were a great influence on German
Expressionism.

46. Impressionism

47. The name 'Impressionism' comes from a sarcastic review of Monet's painting, 'Impression,
Sunrise' (1873), written by Louis Leroy in the satirical magazine 'Le Charivari'.
Impressionism was a style of painting that used a more scientific analysis of colour to capture the
effects of light in nature.
The main artists associated with Impressionism were Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir,
Camille Pissarro, Edgar Degas, Alfred Sisley and Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec.
The Impressionists painted with small strokes of pure colours which mixed in the eye of the
spectator when viewed from a distance.
The Impressionists had to paint quickly to capture the atmosphere of a particular time of day or
the effects of different weather conditions on the landscape.
The speed of the Impressionists' painting technique forced them to sacrifice accurate line and
detail in favour of atmospheric effect.
Impressionism is now seen as the first movement in modern art, and had a huge influence on the
development of art in the 20th century.

reaction to the Enlightenment
In art, Primitivism can be seen as a set of modern

conventions inspired by non-Western art and artifacts.

are two of the important examples of primitivist art.

72.  Dates: Mid 1800's
Key Artists: French Painters: Jean-Baptiste-Camille
Corot; Jean-François Millet; Gustave Courbet; Edouard

 The artists of the Realist school which emerged in France
in the mid 1800's wanted to do away with the idealization
of subjects which was a common feature of some other
art movements such as Neoclassicism and Romanticism.
They wanted to show the natural truth of their subject.
Realism is therefore sometimes called 'Naturalism'.
