figures, background/foreground relationships, color, line, shape, etc.
3. How have art movements influenced one another? Think about the connections we have made
over the semester about the way in which art movements were reacting against or incorporating
previous movements in art. Examples would be: Ancient Roman and Greek thought on
Neoclassicism, Manet’s influence on the Impressionists, Japanese woodblock prints’ influence
over Impressionism and Post Impressionism, van Gogh and Gauguin’s influence on the
Fauvists and German Expressionists (both), Cezanne’s influence on Cubism, Non-Western art
and ancient art on Cubism, Fauvism, and Abstract Sculpture, Cubism’s influence over Futurists
and American Modernists. These are not the only ones. Make sure to look over all the
different ways movements influence one another.
4. Know the differences between and the major movements, the artists that worked within them,
and how they revolutionized the movement, especially in the age of the isms and in modern and
contemporary art.
5. Many art movements through time have been influenced by war. Understand how war has
affected art from Neoclassicism to WWII, paying attention to all the major conflicts we
covered in between those.
6. In addition to war, other social causes have affected artists across movements from Medieval
Art to Post Modern and Feminism. Be able to understand how these causes have influenced,
shifted, and changed art over time.
7. Religion has played a vital role in the history of art over time. Understand its impact on
movements and be able to examine the movements it impacted the most.
8. Think about the changes over time across medium and or/movements in terms of the visual,
