AVANT-GARDE ART MOVEMENTS

Avant-garde in French means "advance guard" or "vanguard." The adjective form is used in English to refer to people or works that are experimental or innovative, particularly with respect to art, culture, and politics. Avant-garde represents a pushing of the boundaries of what is accepted as the norm or the status quo, primarily in the cultural realm. Avant-garde art movements include:
