My name is T.J.Demos and I am a New York based artist and art historian. In my blog, The Art Museums of New York, I write about the historical background of modern art and features of modern art museums. My blog also has information about my artwork and exhibitions as well.

My interest in art actually began in high school but I had no idea what to do with it then. After college I went to the Graduate School at Columbia University to get a degree in art history because I wanted to learn more about how to make art better. While at Columbia, I took a class on contemporary art which led me to begin thinking about how our ideas about what makes something “art” have changed over time. This led me to start looking at artists who made work that seemed to be both modern and historic at the same time.

After graduating from Columbia with an MFA, I got a job doing marketing for an art organization but it wasn’t long before I started writing this blog and making my own artwork again. My artwork has always been varied, but right now I am interested in combining painting with sculpture by making paintings that are sculptural objects or that have sculptural elements such as freestanding pieces or 3-D-printed elements.

The history of modern art is a fascinating subject, which, despite its name, covers the history of visual art from the Renaissance to the present.

The term refers to art made in the 19th and 20th centuries as opposed to traditional painting and sculpture that were practiced for hundreds of years before that.

Among the main characteristics of modern art are its departure from traditional techniques and its emphasis on originality. This artistic revolution was greatly influenced by scientific discoveries and technological advances.

Modern art has many different styles, although some critics say that there are only two: abstract art (with no figurative elements) and expressionism (with emotional, narrative or descriptive elements). However, there are other styles such as geometric abstraction, pop art, op art and minimalist art among others.

What To Expect At A Modern Art Museum

To help visitors understand this type of artwork better, a modern art museum will often have several rooms with different kinds of works by different artists. Some rooms may focus on certain themes or artists while others may have more abstract works. The works will be displayed chronologically so that visitors can follow the evolution of the movement.

The history of modern art is a fascinating subject that is often overlooked. Many people have never been to a modern art museum, or have only once or twice and would like to learn more about the world of modern art, so this blog will be an excellent resource for those that want to learn more about the museums and the history of these pieces of art.

The modern art museum is a place of wonders. The objects displayed in it, the people who enter it, and the ideas that are produced there are all curious in their own right.

Touring the modern art museum is a great activity for anyone interested in the history of art. Mapping out which movement influenced which artist and what kind of painting was popular at a given time period requires you to do your own research. The best way to do this is by visiting museums that specialize in modern art.

The History of Modern Art

From the 1890s onward, artists began experimenting with new styles in painting and sculpture. In particular, they wanted to break free from the rules and traditions that had governed art since the Renaissance. The Renaissance style depended on careful attention to detail and skillful use of perspective and shading to create realistic images. It was very popular during the 16th century, but many artists felt confined by its strict rules. This led them to experiment with new styles and techniques.

In 1907, two influential shows took place that introduced Futurism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dadaism, Constructivism and Surrealism to an eager public audience. Later movements included Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Minimalism and Conceptual Art. Each school

If you have been fortunate enough to be living in a modern art museum your whole life, you may not realize that most people do not share your passion for modern art.

The eye does not distinguish colors as accurately as the brain. You probably have never fully realized this fact and its enormous significance for the modern art museum until now.

The eye distinguishes colors approximately as well as a TV camera or maybe even a little better, but the brain is far more sophisticated than any TV camera. The brain can make up for deficiencies in perception, filling in missing detail and making sense of contradictory information.

But it can’t do anything if you give it nothing to work with. That’s why we often get more out of looking at black and white photos than we do color ones, because our brains fill in the missing shades of color.

And that’s why so many people find modern art so difficult to appreciate: it gives them nothing to look at except colors. The artist has stripped away all other information, and left only colors.

It is like asking someone who knows only English to read a book in Japanese, which uses thousands of Chinese characters but no alphabet or punctuation marks or spaces between words. It would require an enormous effort of imagination just to figure out what was going on; much less to decide whether you thought it was good or bad, interesting or boring.

Modern art is art produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and characterised by break-away movements and experimentation with media, techniques, and content.

Modernism describes a set of related concepts: it is a modern period in art characterized by anti-traditionalism and departure from classical conceptions of form in art.

In a general sense, modernism in visual art is characterized by an interest in formal qualities of composition, such as elements of abstract, or non-representational art, which was developed during the mid-20th century. The term covers an artistic movement that was dominant from approximately 1910 to 1950[2] and which placed new emphasis on abstract qualities.

The term “modern” was not contemporary with the visual arts called “modern” today. It was first applied to architecture in the late 19th century when French artists and writers used it to describe objects and designs of many different eras as opposed to those that were considered Classical or Gothic. Its use in reference to painting and sculpture soon followed. The word’s connotations changed as modernism developed.

In most fields there are two distinct movements now called “modernism,” but they are quite different: one is usually called modernism (or “modernist music
