This series explores art from the early and middle 20th century, a time shaped by world wars, new technology, and big questions about what art can be. You will see famous works like Dali's melting clocks, Hopper's Nighthawks, Frida Kahlo's portrait with Diego Rivera, and Warhol's soup cans. You will also meet movements like Dada, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism, and learn how some artists were attacked by the Nazi regime. These works help explain the world that shaped modern life.
