Futurism

Futurism developed in Italy around the same time as cubism appeared in France. Like cubism, futurism was short-lived, lasting only from 1909 until 1916.
Futurism was the first of many movements that tried to break from the past in all areas of life. Art of this period glorified the machine age, modern life, and war. Artists wanted their work to capture the power, excitement, and speed of modern industrial society. Futurism artwork often depicted motorcycles, automobiles, and trains. Artists learned to break up realistic pictures to into multiple images and overlap the various colors.

Why does it represent the history of that time?

Because one thing that is important for us is the future more than the past and by this type of art we can appreciate or try to see how we could life be in the future

Why does it represent the culture of that time?

It represents the culture of that time because at that time there was a transition in art, and the persons were looking to see how life would be in a future.

Why and what does it represent something you really fond of that time or period?

Because is the period that maybe some or all of us maybe will live and for me something really good or interesting is to see how art started with the things as simple as you can imagine and know days how it became very complex and helps you imagine how the art will be in the future.

Why do you like that particular artist that much?

I don’t looked up for any artist it just that I remembered a place I visited and was the inspiration in this my third partial project  the place I’m talking to you is times square

Why do you like that particular artist that much?

i like this artist beacuase, andy can be very weird. he is very creative and makes a simply object, or theme a big deal. He uses lots of color which make you think more about the meaning.

I used the sence of nature and how the time changes. Like the trees changing in autum. Also i used the hands together as a sign of peace. the color pinkish purple because it illustrates love and care, and that is something we need in this world.

Pop Art - An art movement and style that had its origins in England in the 1950s and made its way to the United States during the 1960s. Popartists have focused attention upon familiar images of the popular culture such as billboards, comic strips, magazine advertisements, and supermarket products. Leading exponents are Richard Hamilton (British, 1922-), Andy Warhol (American, 1928?1930?-1987), Roy Lichtenstein (American, 1923-1997), Claes Oldenburg (American, 1929-), Jasper Johns (American, 1930-), and Robert Rauschenberg (American, 1925-).

Because it uses brands and it’s modern, also because we are totally influenced by the technology, the fashion and the consumism of European countries like England and also by the US.

Because nowadays, our culture is based on the consumism, the technology and the fashion of the big countries just as England and the US.

Why and what does it represent something you really fond of that time or period?

The use of a new technique, also because it is new, it is something nobody had done before. And the use of colourful colours.

Because he was the first one who got the idea of using brands. And I like his work, It was new and modern for that time, also because nowadays he is pretty famous because of his work “Campbell's Soup Cans”
