Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. L'expression « art contemporain » désigne de façon générale et globale l'ensemble des œuvres produites depuis 1945 à nos jours, et ce quelle qu'en soit le style et la pratique esthétique. Dans cette classification périodique, l'art contemporain succède à l' art moderne (1850-1945). Cette désignation s'applique également aux musées, institutions, galeries, foires, salons, biennales… montrant les œuvres de cette période. L'expression « art contemporain » est aussi utilisée en France, avec un sens plus restreint, pour désigner les pratiques esthétiques et réalisations d'artistes revendiquant « une avancée dans la progression des avant-gardes [ 1 ] ». On parle aussi d'art contemporain pour désigner, par convention, l'art des années 1960 et d'après.Constantin Brâncusi

||Impressionism||
Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement that originated with a group of Paris-based artists. Their independent exhibitions brought them to prominence during the 1870s and 1880s, in spite of harsh opposition from the conventional art community in France. The name of the style derives from the title of a Claude Monet work, Impression, soleil levant ( Impression, Sunrise ), which provoked the critic Louis Leroy to coin the term in a satirical review published in the Parisian newspaper Le Charivari . Impressionist painting characteristics include relatively small, thin, yet visible brush strokes, open composition , emphasis on accurate depiction of light in its changing qualities (often accentuating the effects of the passage of time), ordinary subject matter, inclusion of movement as a crucial element of human perception and experience, and unusual visual angles.Auguste Rodin

Vincent Willem van Gogh ( Dutch: [ˈvɪnsɛnt ˈʋɪləɱ vɑŋ ˈɣɔχ] ( listen ) ; [ note 1 ] 30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch post-Impressionist painter whose work, notable for its rough beauty, emotional honesty and bold color, had a far-reaching influence on 20th-century art. After years of painful anxiety and frequent bouts of mental illness, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] he died aged 37 from a gunshot wound, generally accepted to be self-inflicted (although no gun was ever found). [ 3 ] [ note 2 ] His work was then known to only a handful of people and appreciated by fewer still.Paul Cézanne ( US pron.: / s eɪ ˈ z æ n / or UK / s ɨ ˈ z æ n / ; French: [pɔl sezan] ; 1839–1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavour to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century. Cézanne can be said to form the bridge between late 19th-century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism . Both Matisse and Picasso are said to have remarked that Cézanne "is the father of us all." Cézanne's often repetitive, exploratory brushstrokes are highly characteristic and clearly recognizable. He used planes of colour and small brushstrokes that build up to form complex fields.
