Modernism: by Unknown Author Is Licensed Under by Unknown Author Is Licensed Under

Modernism fostered a period of experimentation in the arts from the late 19th to mid-20th century, particularly following World War I. It involved a radical break from the past and a concurrent search for new forms of artistic expression. Some key works that exemplified Modernist experimentation included Georges Braque's Le Table et le pipe tapestry, Giacomo Balla's Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash painting, Marcel Duchamp's Fountain sculpture, Salvador Dalí's The Persistence of Memory painting, and Paul Cézanne's Mont Sainte-Victoire landscape.
