On these types of pictures, I have always called modern art. Is that correct?
Hello Myrna, Yes they are forms of Modern Art. Most of the art featured here is after 1900 and as the camera and photography felt like a threat to artists they felt a need to bring something that photography wasn't bringing (like cubist faces showing three angles of a face on one picture) but here there is also an element of early pre-columbian, images. Some images are a little like very old images seen in Peru, Bolivia, Chile etc at an early time in history. I love the colours and I like to try and understand what the artist was trying to tell me. The first painting here is much like the work that I would love to produce. Roger Roger
