fundamental ideas that define modernist art: An emphasis on materials,
techniques, and processes; a rejection of history and conservative values
(such as realistic depiction of subjects); innovation and experimentation
with form (the shapes, colors, and lines that make up the work) with a
tendency to abstraction; and a focus on materials, techniques, and
processes. Various social and political concerns have also influenced
modernism. These were frequently utopian, and modernism was connected
with idealized ideals of human existence and society, as well as a faith in
progress.
3. Modern art is a term that refers to art produced during the period of
Modernism, which was characterized by idealism and a near-dogmatic trust
in reason and progress. Postmodern Art, on the other hand, is a container
idea for art created during the period of Postmodernism, which is defined
by an epistemological uncertainty that questions the notion of universal
truth (s)

and feelings. It's intangible, and it's something

feel more alive, and it allows us to relive
memories simply by looking at a piece of art.

2. Art analysis is used by art historians to explain and comprehend this
experience. Because it focuses on form rather than subject matter or
historical context, formal analysis is sometimes referred to as such. It
normally consists of two parts: a description of a work's visual qualities and
an examination of their impact. In art, however, interpretation refers to the
assigning of meaning to a piece. Whether the artist's or author's aim is
relevant to the understanding of the work is a question on which people
frequently differ.
