The Modern Art Movement is the collective power of all past artistic and cultural influences that impact the Art of the time. The “Modern Art Movement” began when humanity started to think, produce, and believe autonomous thoughts, reducing the power that institutional religion had; allowing for experiments that pulled at humanities curiosities. Modernism is argued to have ended shortly after Second World War. The principles of Modern art include producing art for the sake of art itself, being avant-garde, and original in both color and form. Doing things that have never been done and saying things that have never been said; a few well known modern artists include: Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, and Mark Rothko.
