Expressionism

In expressionist works, agency is given to subjective sensations, opposing an objective representation of the world. As a result, expressionist artists strived to convey states of mind rather than faithfully reproducing the reality of the external world.

Contemporary Art

Contemporary art, spanning from the second half of the 20th century to the present day, often transcends the boundaries of modern art, creating a blurry distinction. It is an exploration of current forms of expression that push the limits and challenge conventions.

Impressionism

Impressionism encompasses a painting style that originated in France during the latter half of the 19th century. This artistic movement is characterised by the use of small and distinct brushstrokes, which convey a mere impression of form. Unblended colors are employed, with a particular focus on accurately depicting natural light.

Romanticism

Romanticism emerged in the late 18th century as a reaction to the Age of Enlightenment and its accompanying rationality. Romantic artists turned towards more intimate and personal subjects, seeking to express their deep emotions and feelings.

Post-Impressionism

Post-Impressionism emerged in the 1880s as a response to Impressionism, spearheaded by influential artists like Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, and Georges Seurat. Unlike Impressionism, Post-Impressionists consciously rejected the emphasis on capturing light and color in a spontaneous and naturalistic manner.
