French Modernism

French Modernism was an influential cultural movement in the early 20th century that redefined art, literature, and architecture by embracing innovation and experimentation. It aimed to break away from traditional styles, focusing on new techniques, abstract forms, and exploring contemporary life. Artists like Picasso and writers like Apollinaire exemplified this shift toward originality and expressive freedom. French Modernism reflected the rapid changes of the modern world, emphasizing individuality, innovation, and a desire to challenge established norms, shaping much of the 20th-century artistic and intellectual landscape.
