  1. Henri Matisse 
    Painter, Sculptor (1869–1954)
    Henri Matisse was a revolutionary and influential artist of the early 20th century, best known for the expressive color and form of his Fauvist style.

    “My choice of colors does not rest on any scientific theory; it is based on observation, on sensitivity, on felt experience.”


  2. Marc Chagall

    Illustrator, Painter (1887–1985)

    Marc Chagall was a Belorussian-born French artist whose work generally was based on emotional association rather than traditional pictorial fundamentals
    “I know I must live in France, but I don’t want to cut myself off from America. France is a picture already painted. America still has to be painted. Maybe that’s why I feel freer there. But when I work in America, it’s like shouting in a forest. There’s no echo.”
    —Marc Chagall


  3. Edvard Munch

    Artist, Painter (1863–1944)


    Norwegian painter Edvard Munch is widely known for his iconic pre-Expressionist painting "The Scream" ("The Cry").
    For as long as I can remember, I have suffered from a deep feeling of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art.”

Both Gothic art and architecture spread throughout Western Europe The hallmarks of Gothic art include such forms as sculpture, paintings (on panels), stained glass, and illuminated manuscripts. Fresco was also an important media for Gothic artists.  The subjects of Gothic art were often religious in nature, but the period also marks an interest in secular art. As literacy rates improved and more and more people could patronize the arts, additional subject matter came to light. Scenes often, however, depicted narratives of Biblical stories. The Madonna, a less iconic and more human woman, figured strongly into Gothic art. Religious subject matter covered churches and cathedrals and was also expressed in metalwork and tapestry.
