Discuss, with specific examples, three aspects of early twentieth century avant-garde art movements Many of the avant-garde movements shared the belief that bourgeois society imposed stultifying and conventional ways of seeing and knowing the world, thereby limiting our ability to challenge existing systems of political domination. Compare and contrast the manner by which the Cubists (Picasso, Braque) and the Surrealists (Dali, Ernst, Kahlo, Varo, etc.) sought to challenge or subvert conventional ways of thinking and seeing through their art. Compare and contrast three types of Dadaism, using specific examples. Discuss four key characteristics of Constructivism, using specific examples. Compare and contrast the murals of Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros, both in their technical production and in their relationship to the political and cultural dynamics of the 1930s.
