It delves into the stories behind 50 pivotal works that shook the art world, revealing the fascinating tales behind their creation, reception, and lasting legacy. The book begins with the rebels who challenged Victorian conformism, showcasing artists like Manet, Rodin, Van Gogh, and Courbet, who experimented with expressionist and realist art styles, as well as controversial subjects. As we move into the fin de siècle and the 20th century, we witness the iconic works and turbulent lives of artists like Munch, Klimt, Picasso, and Egon Schiele, whose groundbreaking contributions to abstraction, surrealism, and cubism forever changed the course of Western art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the second half of the 20th century, we witness a spectacular surge of conceptual rebellion, absurdity, and political protest. Artists like Andy Warhol and the Pop Art movement embraced pop culture, while Marina Abramovic's visceral and violent works of performance art exposed the harsh realities of the patriarchy and human condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the 21st century, we see how iconoclastic creators continue to push the boundaries of art, from Banksy to Louise Bourgeois, from self-destructing paintings to experimental works of computerized art. ArtQuake is a comprehensive exploration of modern and contemporary art, featuring beautiful reproductions of iconic works, as well as a glossary of terms and movements to enhance the reader's understanding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough its engaging narratives and insightful analysis, ArtQuake celebrates the artists who have fearlessly carved their names into the history of art around the world. It sheds light on their huge egos, uncompromising feminists, gifted recluses, spiritualists, anti-consumerists, activists, and satirists, who have left an indelible mark on the artistic landscape. This book is a testament to the power of art to challenge norms, provoke thought, and inspire change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 506g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 158 x 206 x 22 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780711254763\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Susie Hodge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44101693669626,"sku":"9780711254763","price":9.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/41178e82feb42e78c3e2be593795dae2.jpg?v=1635828349","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/artquake-the-most-disruptive-works-in-modern-art","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
