Features: This book is a work discussing 20th-century French art. Western 20th-century art differs from previous art in that a movement, style, or tendency often lasted only a short time, while an artist's activities generally spanned many years, involving different periods, and sometimes even featured characteristics of different movements, styles, or tendencies. Compared to previous eras, the 20th century can be said to be an era full of change. With the rapid development of industry and technology, Western social structures, lifestyles, and ideologies have changed at an unprecedented speed, and its art was no exception. During the process of Western art breaking free from the constraints of the Renaissance tradition and transforming into modernity, France, as a major force in Western art, played a crucial role. This book tells the activities and experiences of some French artists, as well as some of their works and creative schools. Over time, the innovative French people will continue to recreate the brilliance in the history of art.
