How is Modernism related to Symbolism and impressionism?

December 28th, 2009 by admin

I am asking about litrary movements.

This reads like a "which one isn’t like the others" question :) If your talking art movements, impressionism couldn’t be more different as far as impact to the other two as it is usually just that, an impression gained from something you would see around you – associated most often with watercolors and landscapes – see Monet. Modernism and symbolism often go hand in hand in art as it plays more to the interpretation – see Picasso, Goya, Miro or Dahli’s "drawers" to see what I mean.

If you’re talking English language or religious movements, that’s a much longer answer :)
