Sara Fanelli, Tate Artist Timeline

Hey folks, just a post to let you know that the timeline I was using last Friday to aid with our Modernist umbrella is now on MyUCA in the Contextual Studies folder [on the left hand side towards the bottom]. The timeline will give you some sense of the great period of technological, political and societal changes and flux that took place from 1750's - 1940's.

Also here is a link to the Tate Glossary I mentioned the other day. It provides a good overview of art terms, including -ism's.

Remember art and design is not made in a vacuum but is influenced from the world we inhabit.
