What and How ❖ “Modern Art is a representation of the world that is less than literal,” ( Art ) ❖ During the 20’s, photography had just been invented so there was no real need for paintings, much less realistic ones, ( Art ) ❖ Modernism created a new way of thinking and seeing the world

What is Surrealism? ❖ A section of Modernism ❖ “The true function of thought, defying all logic and lies outside any normal or moral interpretations of life,” ( Art )

More Modernism ❖ Modernism continued throughout the World Wars ❖ By the end of the 1st World War, America was a superpower country, and what better time to begin a new way of thinking ❖ America began to grow and advance ❖ This America gave the world some of the greatest inventions ➢ Light Bulb ➢ Telephone ➢ Automobile
