Modernism was a cultural movement of wide
scope and diversity. It arose during the
late 19th century and evolved through much of the 20th
before being deconstructed by Postmodernism.
Modernism was expressed in many of the arts: Visual Art, Architecture,
Music, and Literature. It responded to
many scientific, philosophical, and aesthetic influences that were emergent at
that time. It changed everything in an
effort to “make it new.” That tectonic
shift in the aesthetic landscape had formative and lasting effects on the
contemporary world—a treasured legacy in this Postmodern 21st
century. 15 November, 2013
