    James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) made his debut on the artistic scene at a decisive moment in the history of art and became a pioneering figure. Whilst the impressionists were embodying the epitome of the avant-garde, Whistler’s paintings reached a level of abstraction that had not yet been achieved.

    Why the Soul of Surrealism is in India

    July 23, 2013 / 2 Comments

    If all the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players, then where do the Surrealists sit?

Of course, this is entirely subjective, but I think that certain countries, or cities, really do go hand in hand with the style or ideals that various art movements represent.
