Synopsis

Explore the evolving battle lines of modern art and see how Cubism and Post-Impressionism shaped a new visual language.

This book surveys a pivotal moment in art, tracing how artists moved from realistic aims to abstract, composition‑driven work. It explains a three‑stage view of artistic progress and shows how painters like Kandinsky and Picasso pushed form beyond literal subject matter. The discussions connect art to broader cultural shifts, including how new ideas spread through exhibitions and international movements.

Readers will gain a clear framework for understanding early 20th‑century painting, including the rise of pure composition and the shift from object to mood. The text mixes analysis, artist notes, and examples to illuminate why these movements mattered then—and why they still resonate now.

• How the three stages of painting move from practical aims to pure art.


• Differences between impressionist roots, expressionist turns, and cubist approaches.


• Key ideas behind Kandinsky, Picasso, and fellow innovators and how they differed.


• Notes on how modern exhibitions reflected and propelled change.

Ideal for readers of art history and anyone curious about how modern art found its voice.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
