Just stumbled onto this page; I've been adding things to and organizing Art styles, periods and movements. Do you think any aspects of these two pages should be moved or combined? If all of the individual pages of art movements are put in the Art history category, or an art history subcategory call art movements (and it could be tricky distinguishing between the two, I almost kind of wonder if other alphabetized lists would be needed anymore... --STLEric 03:19, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Timeline

Could someone add a timeline of art movements using that EasyTimeliner package developed for Wikipedia?

[edit] Ethnocentric

The phrase Art movements seem to be a nearly exclusively Western art phenomenon is absurd,there are a lot of movements in other cultures,unknow in the west doesnt mean they don't exist or are less valuable--Andres rojas22 16:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Excellent point. Thanks for making that point, and I'm happy to see that bit of absurdity removed. Bus stop 16:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No more art movements?

The first paragraph says, in part:

"Art movements were especially important in modern art, where each consecutive movement was considered as a new avant-garde. Movements have almost entirely disappeared in contemporary art, where individualism and diversity prevail."

Do we have a source for the notion that "Movements have almost entirely disappeared in contemporary art, where individualism and diversity prevail."?

I don't doubt that this might have been said somewhere, but I think a source for that assertion would be appropriate. Bus stop (talk) 19:02, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Also, why is Art movement a part of WikiProject Philosophy and not WikiProject Visual arts? Bus stop (talk) 19:46, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
