SYMBOLISM stimuli originating from nature, directly.

 A symbol is a clear indication that anything like an


idea or a standard is invisible.
 Symbolism uses symbols to systematically focus or
amplify meaning, rendering the artwork more
subjective (rather than objective) and traditional.

FAUVISM

 It is derived from the French “les fauves” which


means “the wild beasts”.
 It is the last part of the 19th-century artistic
movement that stressed spontaneity and the use of
excessively bright colors.

DADAISM

 The word “dada” is a French word which means


“hobby-horse”. A hobby-horse is the children’s pet
toy made of a wooden horse mounted on a stick.
 We may claim it with this etymology dadaism is a
“nonsensical” art movement. Some would say it is
not art since it appears to have absolutely no sense.

FUTURISM

 Described as a modernist movement embracing the


future age of technology.
 The automobile, the aircraft, the industrial town
reflected the development of urban life and the
technological success of A Man beyond Nature.
