Modernist Artists
Modernism, as an Art Movement, covers a period of 100 years. During that period the styles within it changed and grew. Individual artists were around for long periods within that time and not surprisingly they developed their own styles which also changed and developed through their lifetimes. It is for this reason that in this section of "The Digital Modernist" we make no attempt to categorise individual artists within a single sub genre of art during the Modernist era. What all the featured artists share is a belief that art should reflect its context in terms of time, technology and society. They are all committed to a break with the classical constraints of previous centuries and have a concern for expressing emotion rather than merely realism and seeing meaning in their work that goes beyond the reproduction of a scene for future generations.
