11.13: The World is One (1960 CE – 1990s CE)

Modern art began at the turn of the 20th century and ushered in a complete and profound change in art and the world culture. On the edge of the industrial revolution, the steam train and the electric train, along with winged flight, changed how people traveled around the world. The new form of travel opened up the opportunity for millions of people as they discovered new territories, cultures and ideas. Translating these ideas into art, the modern art movement spread quickly and changed rapidly.
