Awesome video for those new to art, as an overview. I still can't stand the idea of impressionism as a style. The only thing that separates rembrandt from the impressionists is color, but brush strokes and layout , it's all there. The so-called impressionism is more of a sincere fundamental skill of painting down to the core. It should not be though as a style but as a principle of painting. Hopefully, someone's curiosity awakens with this insight.

With the modern day prevalence of Digital Media and the distinct role it plays in influencing our society (much like the artwork of the past, influencing and depicting their times) can it too not be considered a style? Or perhaps like any other tool, it can be used to create the art we wish to see, in the style in which we prefer...

What about comics, anime or cartoons? Would you call them art too? These days Im really confused on where to take my art career one part of me loves watercolor and a more impressionistic style even expresionist, another part of me loves animations with a more cartoony-anime style. I don't know where to focus, I find myself jumping from one style to another. I don't know if thats something bad. I was thinking to pursue a carreer on art for entertainment like concept art for games or animations which is mostly digital while keeping a more artististic style in traditional media as a hobby selling my paintings. In really really confused if this is a good idea or if I would be able to handle both at the same time, any advice? Sometimes I feel like Im splitting myself in two different persons.

@JillPoyerdFineArt

Good question...I tend to classify comics, anime, and cartoons (as well as a few other categories) under "art" as opposed to formal painting which I would place under "fine art", if you know what I mean. Both categories involve incredibly talented people, but there's kind of a line between them of some kind. I'm trying to come up with what that line is, but am drawing a blank right now. I truly don't think it's bad to jump between them as long as you feel you can grow and achieve in both. I picked up oil painting again (after having stopped using that medium for many, many years and only focusing on watercolor. I now switch back and forth depending on my mood and what I want to paint. I feel like it helps keep things interesting for me. If you want to take one to the next level, perhaps spend more time working on that one and save the other for artistic relief. Is that helpful?

@saionjisan

Artistic relief...it sounds interesting, sometimes I just get bored on doing the same thing even I'm learning new stuff so I suppose it might be good, now I just need to choose which one is my priority. Art or fine art ...I also feel there is a line in between them, as for fine art I can say its much more valued by the people, whereas the other its more comercial and even its needs a lot of talent it tends to be undervalued which is very sad according to me. I find it easier to create very good fine art and people had purchased me some paintings, but when I do comics it feels like no one will value that even it took me the same effort and time.

Thank you.

A criticism I hear of photorealistic painting is 'why endeavour to paint something that doesn't convey anything that a photograph doesn't convey?'. It's a fair argument and not easy to explain. I've never achieved photorealism myself but I can't say I haven't tried. The challenge is one reason but I find that I prefer to look at a perfect photorealistic painting than a photograph. Although it's sometimes almost impossible to tell the difference, I do get something from looking at photorealistic paintings. A painting can make us see and appreciate things we take for granted when looking at the scene in real life (or, indeed, at a photograph). Things we see every day and only notice when somebody paints them. Superficially, it's wonder at the artist's skill. But, the more realistic, the harder we have to look for clues that it was painted by hand... and the harder we look, the more we see. That is the viewer's reward: to see. A camera records whatever it's pointed at and even the photographer may not have noticed every detail that the camera has recorded. Not so with the painter. Everything the viewer sees has been observed, analysed and painstakingly reproduced by the artist. The joy of producing a realistic painting is the joy of seeing... and that joy is passed on to the viewer. It makes the mundane become magic. That's my take on it anyway.

Photorealism is for the artist an intense challenge because it involves all his technical know-how and then in my opinion whoever can do photorealism can do everything afterwards in the style he wants because he has all the ability but not vice versa. Lots of people are going towards the abstract these days, especially fake artists because they are freed from knowing how to draw and logically anyone who does not even know how to represent in drawing what he sees how would he be able to represent an emotion or what not seen? that's my big question. The abstract tends to escape all criticism provided that the artist can defend himself using artistic jargon such as gestures, emotion, spontaneity, touch, material, ... etc. In abstract Art is more in the mouth that interprets than on the painting itself. That's only my opinion. Thx for your beautiful and very instructif videos !!!!!! I discovered your channel today.

I don't fully understand the difference between realism and photorealism. For example, I don't know why the painting at 4:54 is considered photorealism when it is not much different from the ones you classify as realism, such as the one at 1:43 . I guess that maybe there is a thin line in some cases, but I don't think that the painting I'm talking about is the best example of photorealism.

I would think four more unique styles are yet to be unveiled. Four more distinct categories. "Scribbleism" where the person keeps making lines on a medium to convey brainwave dysfunction. "Refrigeratorism" if not having a magnet and a child involved who is no more than six you are bopped out of the categorie. Someone will corner the child art market, its only a matter of time."Prisonism" incarceration indused wonders to include tattooed skin. "Alienism" what wonders await the time traveler and the ten other different dimensions not to include your own. To include Antartica and any outerspace related visions. I might be joking of course; who is to say? For what is art; without imagination. The market is in a stagnation faze not knowing how to revive itself. Keep up the good work; i learn a lot from your teachings.

First, there is photo realism or hyper realism. This is where the artist paints from a photo with such exactitude, that it is difficult to say which is the photo and which is the painting. Personally, I do not see the art in this style. It can be technically brilliant but it is in no way expressive.Paintings by Steve Mills, Robin Eley. Everything that isn't photo realism is, in some way, "abstract' in that it doesn't mirror the real image. Think of the verb To Abstract. It is a concept, a notion, an interpretation. A room by Andrew Wyeth is clearly recognizable as a room. But no room you have ever walked into looked quite like it. It is a recognizable scene that has been abstracted somewhat from what we see with our eyes. Not as exact as photo realism but you can plainly see what is being depicted. Vermeer, Wyeth,Ingres, Rembrandt, Edward Hopper, Winslow Homer.Cezanne.van Gogh.Mary Cassatt are in this category . Each of these artists has a personal style,an individual way of depicting reality. But it is still an abstract of 'reality'. Then you have people like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Hans Hoffman, Helen Frankenthaler. We think of these people's work as being Abstract. But their style is more exactly described as non-representational art. Now, you might look at such a painting and think you 'see' a recognizable object in there somewhere but that wasn't the intention of the artist. So, all painting that isn't photo realism is, to some degree, abstract. Some of that 'abstracted' painting is realistic or representational and some is non-representational.

@JillPoyerdFineArt

Actually, realism is both a movement and a style. Realism was indeed an art movement that began in the 1850s, but it is also considered “an approach to art in which subjects are depicted in as straightforward a manner as possible…” (Artcylopedia.com) This is what I was referring to when I said that artists have been striving for realism since the beginning of time. Before cameras, art was the only visual method for recording life. Today, many artists refer to themselves as contemporary realists - relating to a style rather than the movement. Many movements develop into styles as future generations incorporate aspects of that movement into their art. Another example: Impressionism was initially a movement in the late 1800s, but artists today who paint using short expressive brush strokes and a focus on light would likely refer to themselves as painting in an impressionistic style. Naturalism was also a movement in the late 19th- early 20th-century, and is also considered a style of art or literature that shows people and things as they actually are. (Merriam-Webster Dictionary) So, the two terms are very closely related. The Realist movement advocated naturalism, and both realism and naturalism were responses to romanticism.

I hear what you're saying. The interesting thing is that there seems to be abstract art that has a lot of thought behind it and then there's abstract art that...well...doesn't. It's all over the map. It reality, abstract by its definition means to take from something - so, to me, some of the best abstracts are thoughtful plays off of reality. Just my thoughts.

But where is Salvador Dali in surrealism

Am I the only one seeing Impressionism put under the Realism name?

Van Gogh and Gauguin are post-impressionists, not expressionists.

I like this series, but found this breakdown arbitrary. Examples were often not of the category being discussed, IMHO. But the borders are subjective, as is Art. Hurray Art!

I'm not really happy with this breakdown. For some of the styles it refers to methods of applying the pain, while others are defined by their subject. This seems rather inconsistent for me, since i'm really trying hard to differentiate between the styles based on a common variable.

@JillPoyerdFineArt

I'm sorry it was confusing for you. My goal was to simplify the styles for best understanding, but my methodology may not work for everyone.

You say that artist’s paint in a photorealistic way because they find it rewarding to meet the challenge of it. Fine. But there is no art to it. It’s a form of showing off technical skills. “See what I can do!?” When a painter produces a photo realistic piece, only the challenge of making the painting look exactly like the photo is met. There’s no interpretation of reality. There is only reproduction of reality. It takes a technician to do that, not an artist. If I make an exact copy of a Cézanne still life, who is the artist me or Cézanne? My copy shows skill but not creativity. And if there is no creativity, there is no real art.

Photography is a poor substitute for the human eye. It distorts perspective, bleeds out highlights & darkens subtle dark values. A hyper realist paints what the human eye can see; finding beauty in mundane everyday items. Inviting us to look closer. Photorealistic is a clumsy term

My understanding of the genre comes both from personal observation and this quotation from Wikipedia, "Photorealism is a genre of art that encompasses painting, drawing and other graphic media, in which an artist studies a photograph and then attempts to reproduce the image as realistically as possible in another medium." Ascribing merit to a photorealistic painting because it invites us to look closer can as easily be applied to the original photo reference on which the painting was based or a blow-up of a detail of the photo. The concept of finding beauty or significance or appreciation of form etc. in ordinary objects harkens back to the exhibition of Duchamp's "readymades". Urinal, bicycle wheel on a pedestal, common snow shovel etc. Duchamp argued, “An ordinary object [could be] elevated to the dignity of a work of art by the mere choice of an artist.” I reject that notion.

Try it yourself then. Sounds like your just bitter because other artists show off skills you don't have.

rey bladen ...really? It sounds like I am bitter because I can’t exactly reproduce a photograph in paint? You think that I am critical because I can’t do what a photorealist painter does ? If an artist like Cézanne has skills that I don’t have, then, by your logic, I should be bitter about that and be critical of his work. My comments about the artistic merits of photorealism stand on their own as valid regardless of what I, personally, can or cannot do!

Thanks for the video hope you read the bible and understand Gods wisdom the end times are near,make a change, turn your life to ChrIst if you don't want to go to hell Matthew 16:24, John 3:16, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Why is it that most of the modern artists work shown in this video are women?

Peter Salmon That’s a valid observation, Peter. It’s because I wanted to feature members of a specific art group and most of them happen to be women at the time. I thought it would be interesting to use one group and divide them by style.

Sorry but Ganguin and Gogh are post-impressionists not expressionists...

So technically, Gauguin was a pioneer in the Symbolist movement, a form of post-impressionism, which according to the Met museum set the stage for the expressionist movement. I was stretching it a bit in order to simplify matters for the viewer. www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/gaug/hd_gaug.htm Regarding Van Gogh, it’s the same idea. I was trying to simplify concepts in this video as art styles and movements can get very, very confusing and even overlap. To me…to my eye, their work falls loosely into Expressionism. www.guggenheim.org/publication/van-gogh-and-expressionism “Working in Arles, Van Gogh completed a series of paintings that exemplify the artistic independence and proto-Expressionist technique that he developed by the late 1880s, which would later strongly influence Henri Matisse (1869-1954) and his circle of Fauvist painters, as well as the German Expressionists.” www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/poim/hd_poim.htm

I don’t care what anyone says...abstract art is dumb as fuck.

Too many women of modern example vs. men of classic examples - All "Men's club" history and "Girl's club" contemporary-
