He had such an ingluence of other artists that tried to imitate him that a new movement rose Mannerism.
Before Michelangelo, artists represented the human body during the dark ages as one dimensional, out of proportion
Michelangelo also helped start the humanist movement by bringing back Greek and Roman art. The humanist movement is a movement concentrates on human's possibilities downplaying God. Many during the Dark Ages were only painting Christian Themes but Michelangelo created a lot of art work of men and women making a new path.
