[http://www.robinwadefurniture.com/modernismgrandmasdesk modernism] in art represents a very broad area, in general modernism is considered to deal with the implications of industrialization on mankind's soul. As we think of the advances of the 19th century, railroads and the telegraph, the recording of sound and the transmittal of sound with the telephone, this era spills over to the 20th century with the advances during flight and even flight from our home planet with other orbs in space. How could this be compared to the struggle for mere existence that men and women endured from forever up until 1969, when man walked upon our moon? Art, ever reflective of actual life, mimics the stresses and strains, joys and still moments of the artist's own life, in whatever era he lives in, so it comes as no surprise that modernism these days displays the world of the mostly-urban, mostly-civilized man. Rural scenes still exist, of course, but they are portrayed in vastly different styles than in previous ages. Whenever we think of modern art, who springs to mind but Picasso, he from the jarring perspective and bright colors, shaking up the art world as he did in the early Twentieth century and throughout his endurance? Not even impressionism charged the art world so generating it ready to expand its consciousness to take into account new approaches. If we think of modernism's focus upon introspection, then what artists see inside themselves should be unique, because every individual is unique. It is the artist's responsibility to himself and to society to bring this in such a way as to communicate his or her own uniqueness. How he is doing this varies from abstract expressionism to cubism to Dadaism to performance art, installation art and also self-art, for instance body piercing and tattooing. [http://www.robinwadefurniture.com/modernismgrandmasdesk modernism art] - The rejection of traditional art practices alone does not make up modernism; the political spectrum should be considered as well. As an example, Dadaism evolved in neutral Switzerland concerning the period of the First World War, with its nationalism and colonial entanglements breeding war and confusing the populace about the exact causes of why they were at war. Dadaism called itself anti-war, anti-intellectualism and anti-bourgeois; in reality, it was pro-chaos, and in perhaps an ironic way, since the birth of the movement began during wartime and didn't last long after hostilities ceased. The advocates of the movement shifted to other pursuits in life after they had had their say. Dadaism may be said to have executed its purpose after which quit, a purely intellectual genre of modernism that has to have proved gratifying to people who aspire to modernism's emphasis on speed. By focusing on the 'new', modernism by necessity rejects that old and even seems to despise it, as the concepts of modernism preclude formality as well as the old ways of painting, with brush and canvas and studio sittings. Through the use of impressionism's open air techniques, everything is out in the open for all to find out the process as the piece will be made. Nothing hidden, nothing subtle, everything open, is apparently the modus operandi. Yet modernism possibly forgets that today's modern man will be obsolete in a few years or so and will look back on today and laugh at his perceptions and conceits; it's one of the drawbacks of recent thought that seeks to become always new and exciting. [http://www.robinwadefurniture.com/modernismgrandmasdesk modernism in art] - Peter Dranitsin is a self taught and self representing artist. He spent my youth in the family where his mother a professional artist and his father a professional photographer. "As a kid maturing Peter took art classes and learned the fundamental concepts of drawing, painting and sculpture. Peter loves to paint and contribute all his time creating new paintings. Lots of people ask him what motivates him to paint - "My abstract art is spontaneous, and creating something beautiful away from something unknown is my motivation in creating new abstract paintings."
