Gothic art is distinguished from its predecessors by an increasing naturalism in the shape and posture of the figures, and an expressive use of line, pattern and color, allowing the artist more freedom of interpretation. Gothic art started in 13th century Italy and developed throughout Europe until the 15th century.

The roots of these changes lay in the more solid rendering of form and the gestural narratives of Giotto's painting. A more precise way of rendering depth was gradually developed through the creative application of perspective drawing in the work of artists such as Masaccio, Uccello, Fra Angelico and Piero della Francesca.]]> 2016-02-04 08:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125077 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125311 Sandro Botticelli, The Mystic Nativity (1500)]]> 2016-02-04 08:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125311 THE HIGH RENAISSANCE (C.1480-1520) fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125570 2016-02-04 08:52:44 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125570 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125653 LEONARDO DA VINCI (1452-1519)

The great artists of the High Renaissance were Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. They painted artworks of unprecedented skill and beauty and were responsible for raising the status of the artist in society from the level of artisan to an intellectual plane on a par with writers, philosophers and scientists. These great masters achieved an anatomical and scientific accuracy in drawing; and a psychological response to color and composition.

Mannerist artists valued a personal and idealized response to beauty over the classical ideal of ‘truth to nature’. The more robust qualities of Mannerism are found in the exaggerated physiques and contorted figures from the late work of Michelangelo, Raphael, Tintoretto and El Greco. A more refined response to the Mannerist style is seen in the elegant and elongated figures from the paintings of Agnolo Bronzino, Parmigianino and Jacopo Pontormo.]]> 2016-02-04 08:55:40 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93125981 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93126022 BRONZINO (Agnolo di Cosimo) (1503-1572)

The works of some its proponents exemplify the ending of the tradition of representational art coming from Classical times. Symbolism can also be seen as being at the forefront of modernism, in that it developed new and often abstract means to express psychological truth and the idea that behind the physical world lay a spiritual reality. Symbolists could take the ineffable, such as dreams and visions, and give it form.]]> 2016-02-05 17:17:54 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93525292 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93525469 Impressionism can be considered the first distinctly modern movement in painting. Developing in Paris in the 1860s, its influence spread throughout Europe and eventually the United States. Its originators were artists who rejected the official, government-sanctioned exhibitions, or salons, and were consequently shunned by powerful academic art institutions. In turning away from the fine finish and detail to which most artists of their day aspired, the Impressionists aimed to capture the momentary, sensory effect of a scene - the impressionobjects made on the eye in a fleeting instant. To achieve this effect, many Impressionist artists moved from the studio to the streets and countryside, painting en plein air.]]> 2016-02-05 17:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93525469 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93525775 Vetheuil in the Fog (1879)

The stylistic variations assembled under the general banner of Post-Impressionism range from the scientifically oriented Neo-Impressionism of Georges Seurat to the lush Symbolism of Paul Gauguin, but all concentrated on the subjective vision of the artist. The movement ushered in an era during which painting transcended its traditional role as a window onto the world and instead became a window into the artist's mind and soul. The far-reaching aesthetic impact of the Post-Impressionists influenced groups that arose during the turn of the twentieth century, like the Expressionists, as well as more contemporary movements, like the identity-relatedFeminist Art.]]> 2016-02-05 17:21:36 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93526422 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93526664 Vision After the Sermon (1888)

Generating enthusiasts throughout Europe and beyond, the movement issued in a wide variety of styles, and, consequently, it is known by various names, such as the Glasgow Style, or, in the German-speaking world, Jugendstil. Art Nouveau was aimed at modernizing design, seeking to escape the eclectic historical styles that had previously been popular. Artists drew inspiration from both organic and geometric forms, evolving elegant designs that united flowing, natural forms with more angular contours. The movement was committed to abolishing the traditional hierarchy of the arts, which viewed so-called liberal arts, such as painting and sculpture, as superior to craft-based decorative arts, and ultimately it had far more influence on the latter. The style went out of fashion after it gave way to Art Deco in the 1920s, but it experienced a popular revival in the 1960s, and it is now seen as an important predecessor of modernism.]]> 2016-02-05 17:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93527444 fkhan1 https://padlet.com/fkhan1/artmovements/wish/93527754 The Peacock Skirt (1894)

Drawn to primitivism and to modern life, they employed distorted imagery and a rich palette to convey profound emotion.

Key Ideas
  • Color could project a mood and establish a structure within the work of art without having to be true to the natural world.
  • The Fauves' simplified forms and saturated colors drew attention to the inherent flatness of the canvas or paper.
  • Fauvism valued individual expression.
