Features: Just as in science, the 20th century was a great era in art. The history of art, if expressed appropriately, is the history of everything. Based on these two beliefs, the author conducts a comprehensive examination of the development of Western art over the past century, and provides an in-depth analysis and interpretation of the influential artists and their works of the 20th century. The author uses art as its coordinate to analyze society and culture, examining the major movements and schools of modern art from the perspective of art history, while also revealing the various sociocultural elements that form the foundation of life in the era.
