Avery- Art Nouveau

 

Alphonse Mucha, “Gismonda,” 1894.

My art movement, Art Nouveau, was a period during 1890-1910 where artists worked the modernize design by leaving behind the classical and historical style. Key styles usually were ones based off of nature elements such as flowers, insects, and other plants. A couple "notable artists" in this period are Gustav Klimt, Alphonse Mucha, and Egon Schiele. During this time, historical events that were happening is the US declared war on Spain in 1890, and the Eiffel Tower was was opened in 1889.

Sydney 's Pop Art

(The piece of art in the left is called Crying Girl by Roy Lichtenstein, 1963.) Pop Art is a style of art that was developed in the mid 20th century, the 1950-1960s. This style involves a lot of color and fun graphics that are supposed to evoke positive emotions to the consumers. The style was recognizable, sometimes ironic, bright, new, and on occasions, involved mixed media. In the late 1940s, WWII was ending, and the world was in odd, postbellum state. Then ten years later in 1955, the Vietnam war--which lasted 20 years--started, then thought the 1960s, the civil rights movement was happening. So durning this time (specifically the 50s), pop art was made to distract people and give them a sense of optimism. It branched off of pop culture and went against the standard ideas of art/painting (modernism). The style was appealing to a lot of people, but especially to the youth. Pop Art looked simple and became mass produced. It was included in news papers, comic strips, and company advertisement.  Some of the most notable pop artist were Andy Warhol (1928-1987), Roy Litchensutein (1923-1997), and Yayoi Kusama (1929).
