Problem
At the beginning of the 20th century, Modernism in many forms become apparent across the world, especially in the arts. Throughout your textbook readings, there is a wildly head-spinning number of different art movements, each with their title (ex. Cubism, Futurism, etc.) and intention. Take this opportunity to focus on one of these art styles from either Chapter 27 or 28.
a) Describe your chosen movement in a detailed summary, including a description of the style, inspirations, intentions, etc.
b) Choose one piece of art to share to support your ideas. Imagine that you are an "expert" in this chosen art style, and you are trying to explain it to someone who may have never heard of it or doesn't appreciate/understand it.
