Primitivism And 20th Century Art

Abstract: 5 pages in length. The extent to which primitivism impacted the development of twentieth century art is such that it virtually transformed the artistic direction of myriad artisans. Discovered in 1906, tribal sculpture had all at once become fitting due to modifications in the very nature of modern art. The vast array of twentieth century artists who embraced the concept of primitivism included the likes of Gauguin, Picasso and Brancusi, not to mention the German Expressionists, the Surrealists and the Abstract Expressionists. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
