_____________________________________________
From the Industrial Revolution of the late 1800s, the
world zoomed into the Electronic Age in the mid-1900s,
then into the present Cyberspace Age. In just over 100
years, humans went from hand-cranked telephones to
hands-free mobile phones, from the first automobiles to
inter-planetary space vehicles, from local radio
broadcasting to international news coverage via satellite.
impressionism
• originated with a group of Paris-based artists whose
independent exhibitions brought them to prominence during
the 1870s and 1880s.
• is a 19th-century art movement
• The name impressionism was coined from the title of a work
by French painter Claude Monet.
CLAUDE MONET
• (1840-1926) was one of the founders of the impressionist movement along with his
friends Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Frédéric Bazille. He was the most
prominent of the group; and is considered the most influential figure in the
movement. Monet is best known for his landscape paintings, particularly those
depicting his beloved flower gardens and water lily ponds at his home.
•It characterizes Monet’s work
throughout his lifetime, and is sketched in
oil paints on canvas, and executed
quickly, to capture the atmospheric or
natural light moment.
•While on vacation, Impression,
Sunrise was sketched, while Monet was
looking out his window one spring
morning. Monet’s quick sketches, or
pochade, capture a particular light effect,

Expressionism:
A Bold New Movement
• In the early 1900s, there arose in the Western art world
a movement that came to be known as expressionism.
Expressionist artists created works with more
emotional force, rather than with realistic or natural
image.
• It refers to art in which the image of
reality is distorted in order to make it expressive of
the artist's inner feelings or ideas
The Starry Night, Vincent van Gogh, 1889
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
IMPRESSIONISM TO EXPRESSIONISM?
• While the paintings are based on the real

world, Impressionists paint the scene as if they had
only glanced at it for a moment. Expressionism is
directly focused on the emotional response of the
artist to the real world, using disproportionate sizes,
and painted in vivid and intense colors.
Social Realism
One of the various style that arose within the expressionist art movements was:
REFLECT
“Painting is a blind man’s profession. He

paints not what he sees, but what he feels,
what he tells himself about what he has
see.”

• Create a Work of “Social Realism
1. Choose a current issue in society that you feel needs to be addressed.
2. Select art materials that are readily available, such as one whole
sheet of cartolina; acrylic paints, poster paints, or any available
paints;
3. Plan how to use these materials to express your message about your
chosen social issue. (Note: Remember that expressionism made use of
very strong images and colors, and expressed deep emotions.)
4. Decide on a title for your artwork.
