And you have some really interesting artists--Banksy, Peter Kien. 
Some years ago I bought a book called "The Artists of Terezin" by Gerald Green. Think it was published in 1978. Moved me profoundly.
I encourage you to think more widely about artists in some of your other principles. 
#1 is "rejection of principles currently in place." You have three impressionist/postImpressionist artists. (BTY, Degas needs a "D"). That was true in the 1870s and 1880s but isn't it still true? For instance, in the 1950s and 1960s, artists in American began to challenge the dominance of Abstract Expressionist ideas, as those were the ones then "currently in place." Perhaps you should consider some of the NeoDadas. 
#3 in "innovate." You can certainly think about mediums there, including artists exploring performance, video and light. I think if you poke around Dada, Minimalism, and early Conceptual art you might find some new possibilities. 
Just thoughts. Keep up the good work!]]> 2017-10-21 17:24:34 UTC https://padlet.com/rliu01/pr7og5t1ellh/wish/199286212 Principles of Modernism 5 rliu01 https://padlet.com/rliu01/pr7og5t1ellh/wish/206070193 The influence of other cultures around the globe changes how artists in different areas view their art in the same context but with very different approaches to those with different cultures or experiences.

Artists:
Pablo Picasso: (Oct 25, 1881- Apr 8, 1973)  French painter that was greatly influenced by African Art and created the style called cubism from the way the African masks were made.

James Whistler: (July 11, 1834 - July 17, 1903) American painter and foerunners of Post-impressionist movement, inspired by Japanese prints.
