What is Modernism? Modernism is a style or movement in the arts that aims to break with classical and traditional forms Was a movement of the 19th and 20th centuries

Modernism... Modernism refers to interest in new: types of paints and other materials, ways to express feelings and ideas, ways to create abstractions and fantasies, Rather than representing what is real

Yeats (The Green Helmet) Georg Trakl (Autumn sonata, Dark seasons) James Joyce (Ulysses) “Modernism released us from the constraints of everything that had gone before with a euphoric sense of freedom.” -Arthur Erikson
