Neo-classicism

Definition

 

inspired by a return to the ideal of the classical age; strove for simplicity, clarity, directness, nobility, and the expression of the ideal; concerned with essence, being, showing something as it is; restive or settledness; clean, clear outlines and emphasis on line; compositions tend to be structured on stable vertical and horizontal lines; goal of absolute clarity, clear representation, definitive boundaries. Neo-classicists were a subsidiary style of Romanticism because they dreamt of the Classical past- one could compare them to the Classical or Renaissance artists.

Term

 

Romanticism

Definition

 

Romantics thought the ideal was inaccessible; were consumed with the tragedy of existence, fascinated with co-existing opposites; concerned with: heroism, love, death, extremes of emotion, often painful; religious ecstasies, the ghostly world of the occult, the fantastic or weird, dreams, chemically altered physiological states, wonder. They emphasized motion, the quality of becoming, dynamic change- Rubens’ colorist and painterly style was superb for this purpose; diagonal lines and merging forms and smeared boundaries; ambiguity instead of clarity. The Romantics abjured uniformity, normalcy, controls on society, the mundane here-and-now in favor of distant exotic places or the mythologized past. Romantics are similar to the Hellenistic and Baroque masters.
