The Ideals and Tendencies of Modern Art is a book written by Edward Clarence Farnsworth in 1917. The book explores the principles, styles, and trends of modern art in the early 20th century. Farnsworth discusses the various movements that emerged during this time, including cubism, futurism, and expressionism, and analyzes the works of prominent artists such as Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Wassily Kandinsky. The author also examines the impact of modern art on society and culture, and argues that it represents a shift away from traditional art forms towards a more subjective and individualistic approach. The book provides a comprehensive overview of modern art and its significance in the history of art.
