MUSIC
Stravinsky’s early music reflected the influence of his teacher, the Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-
Korsakov.
His first successful masterpiece, The Firebird Suite (1910)
The Rite of Spring(1913) was another outstanding work.
He left the country for the United States in 1939, Stravinsky slowly turned his back on Russian
nationalism and cultivated his neo-classical style.
Stravinsky’s musical output approximates 127 works, including concerti, orchestral music, instrumental
music, operas, ballets, solo vocal, and choral music.
He died in New York City on April 6, 1971.
ARTS
Impressionism
By the 1870s, the stage was set for the emergence of the next major art movement in Europe.
Was one of the central figures of the impressionist movement. His early works were snapshots of real
life, full of sparkling color and light.
His early works were snapshots of real life, full of sparkling color and light
By the mid-1880s, however, Renoir broke away from the impressionist movement to apply a more
disciplined, formal technique to portraits of actual people and figure paintings.
Neo-primitivism
was an art style that incorporated elements from the native arts of the South Sea Islanders and the wood
carvings of African tribes which suddenly became popular at that time.
Amedeo Modigliani
who used the oval faces and elongated shapes of African art in both his sculptures and paintings
Fauvism
was a style that used bold, vibrant colors and visual distortions. Its name was derived from Les Fauves
(“ Wild Beast”) referring to the group of French expressionist painters who painted in this style.
Most Famous Henri Matisse.
Dadaism
Was a style characterized by dream fantasies, memory images, and visual tricks and surprises—as in the
paintings of Marc Chagall and Giorgio de Chirico.
It shows the pain that a group of European artists felt after the suffering brought by World War I.
They chose the child’s term for hobbyhorse, dada, to refer to their new “non-style.”
Surrealism
Was a style that depicted an illogical, subconscious dream world beyond the logical, conscious, physical
one.
Its name came from the term “super realism,” with its artworks clearly expressing a departure from
reality—as though the artists were dreaming, seeing illusions, or experiencing an altered mental state.
Social Realism
expressed the artist’s role in social reform.
Immorality, and ugliness of the human condition. In different periods of history, social
realists have addressed different issues: war, poverty, corruption, industrial and
environmental hazards, and more—in the hope of raising people’s awareness and
pushing society to seek reforms.
Abstractionism
Another group of artistic styles emerged at the same time as the expressionist movement.
It had the same spirit of freedom of expression and openness that characterized life in the 20th century,
but it differed from expressionism in certain ways.
It arose from the intellectual points of view in the 20th century. In the world of science, physicists were
formulating a new view of the universe, which resulted in the concepts of space-time and relativity.
It involved analyzing, detaching, selecting, and simplifying.
Representational Abstractionism
depicting still- recognizable subjects (as in the artwork on the left)
Pure Abstractionism
No recognizable subject could be discerned.
Cubism
derived its name from the cube, a three- dimensional geometric figure composed of strictly measured
lines, planes, and angles.
Cubist artworks were, therefore, a play of planes and angles on a flat surface. Foremost among the
cubists was Spanish painter/sculptor Pablo Picasso.

Futurism
The movement began in Italy in the early 1900’s
As the name implies, the futurists created art for a fast-paced, machine-propelled age.
They admired the motion, force, speed, and strength of mechanical forms.
Mechanical Style
basic forms such as planes, cones, spheres, and cylinders all fit together precisely and neatly in their
appointed places.
Mechanical parts such as crankshafts, cylinder blocks, and pistons are brightened only by the use of
primary colors.
Non-objectivism
From the very term “non-object,” works in this style did not make use of figures or even representations
of figures. They did not refer to recognizable objects or forms in the outside world.
Lines, shapes, and colors were used in a cool, impersonal approach that aimed for balance, unity, and
stability. Colors were mainly black, white, and the primaries (red, yellow, and blue). Foremost among
the nonobjectivists was Dutch painter Piet Mondrian
Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Op Art
Action Painting
These were created through what came to be known as “action painting.”
One form of abstract expressionism was seen in the works of Jackson Pollock.
Pollock’s first one-man show in New York in 1943 focused worldwide attention on
abstract expressionism for the first time
Eugène Delacroix
French painter
Was greatly admired and emulated by the early impressionists—specifically for his use
of expressive brushstrokes, his emphasis on movement rather than on clarity of form, and
most of all his study of the optical effects of color.
The Barque of Dante(Painting of Eugene Delacroix), contained a then revolutionary
technique that would profoundly influence the coming impressionist movement. And it
involved something as simple as droplets of water.
“Everyday” Subjects
Impressionists also began to break away from the creation of formally posed
portraits and grandiose depictions of mythical, literary, historical, or religious
subjects.
Painting Outdoors
The location in which the impressionists painted was also different.
Previously, still lifes, portraits, and landscapes were usually painted inside a
studio.
Open Composition
Impressionist painting also moved away from the formal, structured approach
to placing and positioning their subjects.
