Restless Modernity
What distinguishes the art of the last century (until today) is its constant awakening and persistent search for new, as yet undiscovered artistic paths and continents. And whatever the artists achieved, won, and asserted in the process, they soon expanded, surpassed, reformulated, or sometimes even shelved with new, completely surprising twists.
This never-ending restlessness could be used as a definition of the term "modernity" itself. It has ensured that the art of the last century has developed almost explosively, providing us with an immensely rich treasure of works of art expressing themselves in the most diverse ways.
It is a treasure that continues to grow every day because at the moment you are reading these lines, contemporary artists are already setting off in their studios on their next journeys into the unknown, possibly creating the next great masterpieces.
