Vorticism

Vorticism was an early 20th-century British art movement that emphasized bold, geometric forms and dynamic compositions to capture the energy and chaos of modern life. Influenced by Cubism and Futurism, vorticist artworks often feature sharp lines, abstract shapes, and a sense of movement, reflecting the industrial revolution and technological advances of the time. The movement aimed to express the power and turbulence of the modern world through a style that was both structured and forceful, creating a visual "vortex" or whirl of activity that conveys intensity and innovation.
