2 What is Cubism, Futurism, Supremativism, Constructivism, De Stijl
Cubism: The first abstract art style Futarturism: An intellectual art movement founded in Italy in 1909 that contrasts Romanticism Supremative: Geometric abstract art that originated in Russia in the early 20th century that influenced constructivism. Constructivism: A non-object art movement that originated in Russia and concerned itself with formal organizations of planes and expression of volume De Stijl: A 20th-century Dutch art movement founded in The movement favoured an abstract, economical style and was influential on the Bauhaus and constructivist movements

3 Jean Metzinger: Cubist Style
Was created in France Europe. Made during the art period of Cubism in 1911 Medium: Oil on cardboard Jean Metzinger moved to Paris he was heavily influenced by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso This painting really expresses the characteristics of cubism. In the painting there is no traditional perspective technique, the subject is not directly copied from nature, the work gives a two-dimensional feeling. The woman’s face and body are represented in many different square facets. Le Goûter, also known as Tea Time (Tea-Time), and Femme à la Cuillère (Woman with a teaspoon)- 1911

4 Umberto Boccioni: Futurist Style
Medium: Oil on Canvas Was created in Italy Made during the art period of Futurism in 1911. The painting presents a linear perspective, but there is no true sense of space. The architectures are seen from dissonant angles, as if we were looking at many facades all at once. The empty space among the figures, as well as the dimensional relation to each other, is ambiguous. The different size of the figures in relation to each other, as well as their overlapping, are the only two elements conveying depth The City Rises (La città che sale) -1910

5 Kazimir Malevich: Suprematist Style
Medium: Oil on Canvas Period: Cubo-Futurism Made in Russia His ideas about forms and meaning in art would eventually constitute the theoretical underpinnings of non-objective, or abstract, art. his most important and famous works concentrated on the exploration of pure geometric forms (squares, triangles, and circles) More radical than the Cubists or Futurists, at the same time that his Suprematist Compositions proclaimed that paintings were composed of flat, abstract areas of paint, they also served up powerful and multi-layered symbols and mystical feelings of time and space Datei:Samovar (Malevich, 1913)

6 Kurt Schwitters: Constructivist Style
Medium/Materials: relief construction of wood, metal, cord, cardboard, wool, wire, leather, and oil on canvas. Created in Germany during the suprematist time period. After World War I, Schwitters began to collect broken and discarded materials he found on the streets and arrange them into works of art He creates a geometrically harmonious work by finding a careful balance between the physical roughness of the found materials and the smooth shapes they form. The concept that attaching small objects to the surface of the canvas could be considered art was radical. It enabled him to reject conventional illusionism, the rendering of objects as they appear, something he associated with trickery and even hypocrisy in light of the crumbling socio-economic situation in Germany following World War I. Kurt Schwitters, Revolving

7 Piet Mondrian: De Stijl
Medium: Oil on Canvas Was made in Paris, during cubism Mondrian's aim to evoke a spiritual equilibrium was influenced by the mysticism of Theosophy, which sought universal order. While here Mondrian uses blacks and shades of grey, his paintings would later be further reduced, ultimately employing more basic compositions and only solid blocks of primary colors. The strict use of horizontal and vertical lines and primary colours with black and grey is characteristic of De Stijl. Composition No.II 1920 by Piet Mondrian
