British Modernism

British Modernism refers to a cultural movement in the early 20th century that sought to break away from traditional forms of art, literature, and architecture. Influenced by rapid changes such as industrialization and World War I, it emphasized experimentation, abstraction, and new perspectives on reality. Key figures include writers like Virginia Woolf and T.S. Eliot, who explored stream of consciousness and fragmented narratives. In visual arts, artists like Henry Moore embraced unconventional forms. British Modernism challenged established norms, reflecting the complexities of modern life and contributing to a broader global modernist movement.
