Modernism

What is modernism all about?

At first, i was thinking about traditional vs modernism.

In my opinion, modernism is the opposite of traditional.

On the research that i did, i found out that there does not have a fix date for this.

It was written that it starts after the world war 2 which is during the 19 century.

In my point of view, modernism is something which is far far away from realism.

Modernism is showing something which let people think 

and find out what is it all about.

This is one of the example of modernism in art.

This is an oil painting name as 'The Gate' by Hans Hofmann, 1959-60.

A lot of people think that it was a unique piece and a masterpiece for them.

But to me, i think that it just colors on canvas.

What so unique about it?

Then later on, 

I found out that modernism is a way how you

express your feeling.

We can do thing in a much more creative way 

by not only doing standard stuff.

Modernism slowly changes the fix idea of things.

By using the old idea and transform the same thing into another type of interpretation. 

Kuala Lumpur during the world war 2.

Kuala Lumpur 2011.

This is another type of my understanding.

The first image show the picture of Kuala Lumpur during the world war 2 

and the second picture show the picture show the picture 

of Kuala Lumpur in the 21st century.

We can see a lot of changes in the city.

This show that the country is getting modern and modern.

This is what i understand from it.XD
