Our site is about Impressionist art and the era in which it originated and flourished. We take a look at the lives and works of several important artists who helped shape this innovative art form. Impressionism was like no other art movement - it's idealogy and hence it's style is based on artistic form and the ability to bring out the subtle beauty of a scene. The site studies the Impressionist techniques and approach to painting. Each artist contributed something different to the movement and inspired many young artists to adopt the Impressionist style. We have tried to bring this out and at the same time show how Impressionism grew as a collective group effort. There are several interactive features in the site including a timeline of events, a quiz that tests your knowledge of the subject and interviews with artists who share their opinions.
About this site
2001
In an age of sweeping revolution and change, the heart of a continent torn by hysteria and madness ventured out of the darkness of the city to return to the wilds of nature. Individuality, nature, and emotion dominated the minds of restless individuals weary of logic, reason, science, and industry. The spirit of an era awoke, fueled with passion and rebellion, and quickly spread to all aspects of culture to unveil everything contrary to the Enlightenment-- the disturbing, the supernatural, the beautiful, and the wild. Romanticism, intense and rebellious, overthrew all conventions; convention had never been defied in such a manner before, nor would it ever be restored again. This website specifies how far Romanticism pervaded culture and continent; it shows how lasting works of Romantic art, literature, and music representative of the great era are only variations on a theme. Through an online magazine, users can voice their own Romantic opinions and create their own Romantic work. Through a series of informative articles, quizzes, and discussion topics, users can better familiarize themselves and identify with the ground-breaking movement that has led to the way society is today.

Our website contains an overview of the arts of China. In a simple and easy-to-understand manner it explains, and gives examples of Chinas obscure arts. We believe that this website is important for these two reasons. First, we believe that there is a whole world of arts that needs to be looked at. Western culture is known throughout the whole world because of books, movies, and television Our website would provide an alternative to our familiar culture. Second, this website can be used by adults, but it is written in an understandable and concise way, so kids can use it. It could be utilized to broaden their vision of art, not just in the painting sense, but also as in , music, and crafts (such as kites.) Many of us are ignorant of this subject, so we made it clear and easy to grasp. This site could get someone started in studying the arts of China, and they may choose to pursue it even further. This webpage is a good place to begin a search for Chinese arts. If it is put on the web it would broaden peoples horizons. They would have a better view of the Chinese culture, which is incredibly beautiful.
