Modern Art and Entertainment

Art and Entertainment Functionalism in architecture Late 19th century U.S.: Louis Sullivan pioneered skyscrapers –"form follows function" In 1905, architectural leadership shifted to German speaking countries (until Hitler in 1930s) Bauhaus movement: Walter Gropius ( ), broke sharply with the past in his design of the Fagus shoe factory at Alfeld, Germany (1911). Clean, light, elegant building of glass and iron. Represented a jump into the middle of the 20 th century.

Painting Pablo Picasso ( ): most important artist of the 20th century Developed cubism along with Georges Braque Cubism concentrated on a complex geometry of zigzagging lines and sharply angled, overlapping planes. Often tried to portray all perspectives simultaneously Guernica (1937) is considered his masterpiece. Huge mural portraying the bombing of a Spanish city by the German Luftwaffe in 1937.

Non-representational art Some expressionists like Wassily Kandinsky ( ) sought to evoke emotion through non-figural painting

Art Dadaism: "Dada" was a nonsensical word that mirrored a post-WWI world that no longer made sense. Attacked all accepted standards of art and behavior, delighting in outrageous conduct. Mona Lisa painted with a mustache (Marcel Duchamp) Surrealism: Salvador Dali ( ) most important (influenced by Freud's emphasis on dreams) After 1924, painted a fantastic world of wild dreams and complex symbols, where watches melted and giant metronomes beat time in impossible alien landscapes. His most famous painting is “Persistence of Memory”, 1931

Music Igor Stravinsky ( ): Most important composer of the 20th century "Rite of Spring" (1906) experimented with new tonalities (many of them dissonant) and aggressive primitive rhythms Arnold Schönberg ( ): pioneered "12- tone" technique (atonality) This style of music was somewhat akin to Wassily Kandinsky’s non-figural painting in his extreme abstract expressionist style.

Movies Moving pictures were first shown as a popular novelty in naughty peepshows and penny arcades in the 1890s, especially in Paris. Charlie Chaplin ( ), Englishman, became the king of the “silver screen” in Hollywood during the 1920s. German studios excelled in expressionist dramas— e.g., The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919). Advent of “talkies” (films with sound) in 1927 resulted in a revival of national film industries in 1930s, especially France Motion pictures became the main entertainment of the masses until after WWII.

Dark Side of Entertainment Motion pictures, like radio, became powerful tools of indoctrination, esp. in countries with dictatorial regimes. Lenin encouraged development of Soviet film making leading to epic films in the mid-1920s. Most famous films directed by Sergei Eisenstein ( ) who dramatized the communist view of Russian history. In Germany, Leni Riefenstahl directed a masterpiece of documentary propaganda, The Triumph of the Will, based on the Nazi party rally at Nuremberg in 1934.

Radio Guglielmo Marconi developed transatlantic “wireless” communication in 1901 Radio was used for military purposes in WWI Not until 1920 were first major public broadcasts of special events made in Great Britain & US Most countries established direct control of radio by the gov’t (only in U.S. was there private ownership) British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) Radio became used effectively for political propaganda (e.g. Hitler & Mussolini)
