The document asks questions about identifying unity in various works of art through their effective use of design elements and principles to achieve a unified overall composition.Modern Arts

Modern art began around 1860 and lasted until around 1970, sparked by artists throwing out old conventions and embracing experimentation. This led to new ways of seeing and representing the world directly through the artist's experiences. Many new styles emerged like Impressionism, Symbolism, Art Nouveau, Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Dada, Constructivism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Optical Art, Photorealism and other avant-garde styles. Nearly every new style was initially met with ridicule but eventually settled into history, influencing future generations of artists.Chinese art
