I would like to know if there are still painting bounded flows, as developed during the century isms past, like the Dadaists, Surrealists, etc..? Fer, Barcelona
Please

your question Fer. So far, there are three trends that are fashionable, installations, conceptual art and video art. However, there are still many artists in Latin America and the world who paint pictures. No new movement has emerged as a pictorial art in the twentieth century, such as you mention, the surreal, dada, or abstract expressionism, minimalism and concrete art. I mean by pictorial painting movements only. The technology is prevalent in the world now and artists are influenced by that and they convey what they live. Do not forget that an artist and his work is the product of the society in which they live. Surrealism began in 1924 until 1945, when they failed to get out more pioneering artists and founders of the movement, such as Jean Arp, Joseph Cornell, Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, Man Ray, Yves Tanguey etc. But the world still continues to paint surrealist art and these artists are still surreal. Also pop art began in 1955 until 1970, having leaders in the movement to Richard Hamilton, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Tom Wesselman, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Indiana, Ed Rush and Wayne Thiebaud, but it is still doing pop art in the world . I think there will always be artists of these movements.

Recent movements were painting graffiti art, which began in the mid-1970s until 1985, and Neo Expressionism, also mid-1970s until 1985. Graffiti art had the greatest exponents of Jean Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Alex Vallauri. Neo Expressionism was Georg Baselitz, Sandro Chia, Jose Maria Sicilia, Jorg Immendorff, Anselm Kiefer, Mimmo Paladino and Chema Cobo. It has been 25 years and has not developed any new movement in painting.

Moreover, recent art movements have not made manifest, which are the bases of the movement in particular, where they say how to paint and why. The latest move was made a manifesto of surrealism, which wrote the poet Andre Breton in 1924, the Manifesto of Surrealism ", which was like the birth certificate Surrealism.

One of the trends that are fashionable in our days, the facility has representative artists as Pepón Osorio, Mona Hatoum, Cristina Lucas, Priscilla Monge, Doris Salcedo and Leandro Elrich. Among the artists are Damien Hirst's conceptual art, Hans Haacke, and Alberto Antonio Muntadas Baray and video art are Bill Viola, Pola Weiss, Alfredo Jaar, Fernando Falconi, Adria Julia and Diego Lama.

Fer, and artists are a reflection of society and society has broken down a bit, then the artists do not come together as did the Dadaists and the Surrealists, there is no new movement in painting. At this point there is no movement painting again.

I also believe that we have reached a saturation of the art technology and has started the retro art, which would be a return to the landscape, portraits and primitive things. I know several artists who are currently doing portraits and landscapes. So, we started the season as I would call retro art.

Thanks for your question and I hope my reply has answered your question. Augusto
