Art history is a vast and fascinating subject, tracing the evolution of human creativity across centuries. From the detailed realism of the Renaissance to the bold abstraction of Modernism, each movement has shaped the art world in profound ways.
The Renaissance (14th–17th century) revolutionized art through perspective, anatomy, and dramatic compositions. Baroque (17th–18th century) followed, emphasizing grandeur and emotional intensity. Later, Romanticism (18th–19th century) introduced dramatic, often dreamy expressions of individuality.
The 20th century was a turning point, ushering in Impressionism, where artists captured fleeting light and atmosphere. Cubism, pioneered by Picasso and Braque, broke objects into geometric forms, radically shifting perspectives. Then came Abstract Expressionism, which embraced emotion through bold colors and spontaneous brushstrokes.
Each movement continues to inspire artists today, keeping the art world dynamic and ever-changing. World-Wide Q&A explores these shifts, celebrating art’s ongoing evolution.
