Modern art
Modern art includes artistic work produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and denotes the style and philosophy of the art produced during that era. The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation. Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art. A tendency away from the narrative, which was characteristic for the traditional arts, toward abstraction is characteristic of much modern art. More recent artistic production is often called contemporary art or postmodern art.
Modern art begins with the heritage of painters like Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec all of whom were essential for the development of modern art. At the beginning of the 20th century Henri Matisse and several other young artists including the pre-cubists Georges Braque, André Derain, Raoul Dufy, Jean Metzinger and Maurice de Vlaminck revolutionized the Paris art world with "wild", multi-colored, expressive landscapes and figure paintings that the critics called Fauvism. Henri Matisse's two versions of The Dance signified a key point in his career and in the development of modern painting. It reflected Matisse's incipient fascination with primitive art: the intense warm color of the figures against the cool blue-green background and the rhythmical succession of the dancing nudes convey the feelings of emotional liberation and hedonism.

Why art is important | Katerina Gregos | TEDxGhent
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Katerina Gregos is convinced that contemporary art has an important role to play in society, as one of the last frontiers of free expression. Today, artists and cultural practitioners, rather than politicians, are leading some of the key discussions about the state of the world. Contemporary artists challenge each and every one of us to reinterpret social and political events, and crack cemented opinions as well as dominant narratives propagated by the media and those in power. As an internationally respected curator, Katerina has curated a number of exhibitions dedicated to exploring the relationship between art, politics, democracy, the new global production circuits, and human rights.

'A good painting has immediate impact', says American artist David Salle, 'but rewards a longer viewing time'. David Salle is an American painter, printmaker, and stage designer. From his New York studio, the artist talks about the combination of images that go into one of his multi-layered paintings.

Shara Hughes Interview: Changing the Way We See
The fast-rising American artist Shara Hughes is widely praised for her vividly coloured invented landscape paintings. We met Hughes in her New York-studio to talk about drawing inspiration from other painters, and why she feels that a good painting is about “going to the edge and not giving away all the answers.” Early on, Hughes referenced other paintings in her work, trying to figure out what kind of painter she wanted to be and learning from her mistakes. She still embraces these allusions to other painters – such as David Hockney – that come up in her work: “It’s gonna be a mix-mashup because it’s almost impossible not to have some kind of reference.” Hughes uses many different techniques when painting and doesn’t choose a specific colour scheme in advance, waiting to see how it will ...

”Don’t try to push it.” Swiss artist Not Vital, best known for his sculptures and architectonic installations worldwide, shares his advice with emerging artists.
When Not Vital started selling his art as a young artist in New York City, the most memorable advice he got was a practical one from his father, who was not an artist: “I remember, very early on, someone came to the studio to buy a drawing. And then I put up like lots of drawings for this person to choose from. And then my father said: “You should not have more than five drawings.” Because how can someone choose from more than five works?” Vital says and continues: “Don’t try to push it. Even though, if you’re hungry, don’t say that you’re hungry or don’t say that you need to pay rent. No. Because otherwise, out of sympathy, it’s not going to happen.”
Still, Not Vital recognises that he and his peers’ circumstances in New York in the 1970s and 1980s are different: “We were maybe in an easier situation than now. Because now there are more artists and everyone wants to succeed immediately,” Vital explains and elaborates: “Take your time and not just immediately try to be successful. That either comes, or it doesn’t come.”
Not Vital (b. 1948) is a Swiss artist who works in diverse media across installations, paintings, drawings, and sculptures, typically integrating architecture. Vital divides his time between the U.S., Niger, Italy, China and Switzerland, and his art is centred on personal impressions and experiences from around the world. This somewhat anthropological approach is also reflected in how his career is structured into sections, e.g., glass blowers in Murano or paper artists in Bhutan. Vital’s work has been featured in the 49th Venice Biennale in Italy (2001), and he has held significant exhibitions at prominent venues such as the Kunsthalle Bielefeld in Germany (2005), The Arts Club of Chicago in the U.S. (2006), Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing, China (2011), the Museo d’arte di Mendrisio in Switzerland (2014-15) and Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, London (2021).

The fast-rising American artist Shara Hughes is widely praised for her vividly coloured invented landscape paintings. We met Hughes in her New York-studio to talk about drawing inspiration from other painters, and why she feels that a good painting is about “going to the edge and not giving away all the answers.”
Early on, Hughes referenced other paintings in her work, trying to figure out what kind of painter she wanted to be and learning from her mistakes. She still embraces these allusions to other painters – such as David Hockney – that come up in her work: “It’s gonna be a mix-mashup because it’s almost impossible not to have some kind of reference.” Hughes uses many different techniques when painting and doesn’t choose a specific colour scheme in advance, waiting to see how it will all unfold: “I’m always trying to do something I’ve never seen before with comparison to my own paintings.” She feels that her landscape paintings are almost placeless, and she was initially attracted to doing them because it made her think that she didn’t “need the subject matter as much as I needed to make the painting.” In her flower painting-series, she continues, the flowers become more like self-portraits or portraits of other people or crowds: “It adds a little bit of narrative to the work, but it’s still not enough to make you feel you have to understand something to look at the painting.” In contrast to the beautiful and delicate way in which flowers are usually depicted, she continues, her flowers are active and aggressive: “I’m embracing the idea of changing the way we see something.”
Shara Hughes (b. 1981) is an American painter, who is particularly known for her colourful invented landscapes. In 2017, Hughes was included in the Whitney Biennial, and her works are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of Art in New York, the Denver Art Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington D.C., the Si Shang Art Museum in Beijing, and the St. Louis Art Museum, among others. Solo exhibitions include the Arts Club in London, The Newport Art Museum, Gallery Met at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Katerina Gregos is convinced that contemporary art has an important role to play in society, as one of the last frontiers of free expression. Today, artists and cultural practitioners, rather than politicians, are leading some of the key discussions about the state of the world. Contemporary artists challenge each and every one of us to reinterpret social and political events, and crack cemented opinions as well as dominant narratives propagated by the media and those in power. As an internationally respected curator, Katerina has curated a number of exhibitions dedicated to exploring the relationship between art, politics, democracy, the new global production circuits, and human rights. Let yourself be inspired by Katerina’s talk at TEDxGhent 2014, and find out what contemporary art can contribute to society.

'A good painting has immediate impact', says American artist David Salle, 'but rewards a longer viewing time'.
David Salle is an American painter, printmaker, and stage designer. From his New York studio, the artist talks about the combination of images that go into one of his multi-layered paintings.
The artist also explains how his interest in 'exploring the body in space' has led him to paint the bodies of his models and have them physically lifted onto his canvases to leave an imprint.

”Don’t try to push it.” Swiss artist Not Vital, best known for his sculptures and architectonic installations worldwide, shares his advice with emerging artists.
When Not Vital started selling his art as a young artist in New York City, the most memorable advice he got was a practical one from his father, who was not an artist: “I remember, very early on, someone came to the studio to buy a drawing. And then I put up like lots of drawings for this person to choose from. And then my father said: “You should not have more than five drawings.” Because how can someone choose from more than five works?” Vital says and continues: “Don’t try to push it. Even though, if you’re hungry, don’t say that you’re hungry or don’t say that you need to pay rent. No. Because otherwise, out of sympathy, it’s not going to happen.”
Still, Not Vital recognises that he and his peers’ circumstances in New York in the 1970s and 1980s are different: “We were maybe in an easier situation than now. Because now there are more artists and everyone wants to succeed immediately,” Vital explains and elaborates: “Take your time and not just immediately try to be successful. That either comes, or it doesn’t come.”
Not Vital (b. 1948) is a Swiss artist who works in diverse media across installations, paintings, drawings, and sculptures, typically integrating architecture. Vital divides his time between the U.S., Niger, Italy, China and Switzerland, and his art is centred on personal impressions and experiences from around the world. This somewhat anthropological approach is also reflected in how his career is structured into sections, e.g., glass blowers in Murano or paper artists in Bhutan. Vital’s work has been featured in the 49th Venice Biennale in Italy (2001), and he has held significant exhibitions at prominent venues such as the Kunsthalle Bielefeld in Germany (2005), The Arts Club of Chicago in the U.S. (2006), Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing, China (2011), the Museo d’arte di Mendrisio in Switzerland (2014-15) and Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, London (2021).
Roxanne Bagheshirin Lærkesen interviewed Not Vital at his studio in Sent, Switzerland, in August 2021.

The fast-rising American artist Shara Hughes is widely praised for her vividly coloured invented landscape paintings. We met Hughes in her New York-studio to talk about drawing inspiration from other painters, and why she feels that a good painting is about “going to the edge and not giving away all the answers.”
Early on, Hughes referenced other paintings in her work, trying to figure out what kind of painter she wanted to be and learning from her mistakes. She still embraces these allusions to other painters – such as David Hockney – that come up in her work: “It’s gonna be a mix-mashup because it’s almost impossible not to have some kind of reference.” Hughes uses many different techniques when painting and doesn’t choose a specific colour scheme in advance, waiting to see how it will all unfold: “I’m always trying to do something I’ve never seen before with comparison to my own paintings.” She feels that her landscape paintings are almost placeless, and she was initially attracted to doing them because it made her think that she didn’t “need the subject matter as much as I needed to make the painting.” In her flower painting-series, she continues, the flowers become more like self-portraits or portraits of other people or crowds: “It adds a little bit of narrative to the work, but it’s still not enough to make you feel you have to understand something to look at the painting.” In contrast to the beautiful and delicate way in which flowers are usually depicted, she continues, her flowers are active and aggressive: “I’m embracing the idea of changing the way we see something.”
Shara Hughes (b. 1981) is an American painter, who is particularly known for her colourful invented landscapes. In 2017, Hughes was included in the Whitney Biennial, and her works are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of Art in New York, the Denver Art Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington D.C., the Si Shang Art Museum in Beijing, and the St. Louis Art Museum, among others. Solo exhibitions include the Arts Club in London, The Newport Art Museum, Gallery Met at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia. She lives and works in New York City.
Shara Hughes was interviewed by Marc-Christoph Wagner at her studio in Brooklyn, New York in April 2019.

Modern art
Modern art includes artistic work produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and denotes the style and philosophy of the art produced during that era. The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation. Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art. A tendency away from the narrative, which was characteristic for the traditional arts, toward abstraction is characteristic of much modern art. More recent artistic production is often called contemporary art or postmodern art.
Modern art begins with the heritage of painters like Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec all of whom were essential for the development of modern art. At the beginning of the 20th century Henri Matisse and several other young artists including the pre-cubists Georges Braque, André Derain, Raoul Dufy, Jean Metzinger and Maurice de Vlaminck revolutionized the Paris art world with "wild", multi-colored, expressive landscapes and figure paintings that the critics called Fauvism. Henri Matisse's two versions of The Dance signified a key point in his career and in the development of modern painting. It reflected Matisse's incipient fascination with primitive art: the intense warm color of the figures against the cool blue-green background and the rhythmical succession of the dancing nudes convey the feelings of emotional liberation and hedonism.

Modern Talk
by: Shel Silverstein(There was a time when people talked said with their mouth
How they talk and it doesn't mean a thing it's called the modern talk)
Now picture the scene the day is sunny
A man meets a friend and asks him for some money
He says I need five to keep me alive
And the friend gives him this kinda jive
He says zaa za voo za za voo I can't make it
Va za va za voo za va see ya later so long see you later
Vome zoo za vome a viddle o till then
And he's right back out on the street again
And then a girl gets on the phone and talks to her lover
She says we got troubles that we can't keep covered
I just got the news I'm knittin' baby shoes
Now call up the preacher and pay your dues
He says zaa za voo za za voo see you later so long huhuh
I can't stand baby vome zoo za vome till then
And she's right back out on the street again
And then a guy gets grabbed by an army recruiter
He says we're gonna put you in the khaki suiter
So do not cry and don't you lie but take this test to qualify
The guy says blblblblblbl huhuh till then
And he's right back out on the street again
And then a lady goes down to see her psychiatrist
And lies on a couch to give her little head a twist
Now is it a psychosis or is it a neurosis the doctor gives her this diagnosis
Sayin' huhuh listen huhuh twenty dollars
Huhh next Wednesday baby then we'll huhuh then
She's right back out on the street again
And then the preachers in the church they're blessin' and damnin'
Presidents standin' there just Vietnamin'
While the animals sing and politicians swing
And everybody's sayin' the same damned thing
