8 ART MOVEMENTS Realism o Realism was an artistic movement that began in France in the 1850s. This movement is said to mimic that of a picture as it is the real and accurate portrayal of a person or scenery. Mona Lisa Leonardo Da Vinci American Gothic Grant Wood The Gleaners Jean-François Millet Impressionism o A style or movement of painting originating in France in the 1860s. This movement is characterized with depicting the feeling or experience rather than to achieve an accurate depiction. This is done by capturing the effects of light through small, obvious brushstrokes. Bridge over a Pond of Lilies Claude Monet The Ballet Class Edgar Degas 8

9 Post-Impressionism o Post-Impressionism is a movement that began in the early 1900 s. Although they took inspiration from impressionism they rejected its limitations. They continued using real-life subject matter, with vivid colours and thick paint. However, they added other ideas like using geometric forms that would distort objects for its effect. Starry Night Vincent Van Gogh At the Moulin Rouge - Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec Expressionism o Expressionism is an artistic movement from the early 1910 s. It is an artistic style in which the artist attempts to show not reality but rather the personal emotions and responses that objects and events make them feel. This is accomplished through distortion, exaggeration, and fantasy and through the vivid, violent, or dynamic application of paint. The Scream Edvard Munch Lady in a Green Jacket August Macke 9

10 Cubism o Cubism is a style of art which aims to show all of the possible viewpoints of a person or an object all at once. It is called Cubism because the items represented in the artworks look like they are made out of cubes and other geometrical shapes. Houses at La Estaque Georges Braque The Mandolin Pablo Picasso Surrealism o Surrealism is a movement that began in the early 1920 s. This movement is a realistic portrayal of an image or scenery with a twist that is unnatural or not possible in real life. Melting Clocks Salvador Dali The Son of Man Rene Magritte 10

11 Pop Art o Pop art began in the 1950 s. This was the first movement to brings things from popular art such as comic books, celebrities, or advertisements. These paintings often used ben-day dots and were painted with an element of irony. M-Maybe Roy Lichtenstein Shot Marilyn s by Andy Warhol Abstract o Abstract is a movement of art that emerged in the 1940 s. This is a type of art that does not attempt to represent external reality, but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colours, and textures. Composition in Red, Blue and Yellow Piet Mondrain Abstract Mirza Zupljanin COLOUR COMBINATIONS Analogous o Analogous colour schemes use colours that are next to each other on the colour wheel. They usually match well and create comfortable designs. 11

12 Complimentary o Colours that are opposite each other on the colour wheel are complementary colours. The high contrast of complementary colours creates a vibrant Monochromatic o Using the Tint, Tone, Shade of a single Hue. Triad o A triadic colour scheme uses colours that are evenly spaced around the colour wheel. Triadic colour harmonies tend to be quite vibrant, even if you use pale or unsaturated versions of your hues. Split-Complementary o The split-complementary colour scheme is a variation of the complementary colour scheme. In addition to the base colour, it uses the two colours that are beside its complement. This colour scheme has the same strong visual contrast as the complementary colour scheme but has less tension. Tetrad o The rectangle or tetradic colour scheme uses four colours arranged into two complementary pairs. 12
