About the book

1910

The year is 1910. While two diametrically opposed artistic currents vie for hegemony, two new movements emerge, which change the course of 20th century art.

1910: Portrait of a Year explores two defining artistic currents, Expressionism and New Classicism. These diametrically opposed impulses, one driven by ebullient hedonism, and the other by cerebral restraint, together shaped the major artistic achievements of the era. 1910 stands out as a pivotal year, when these contrasting drives engaged in a dynamic dialogue.
The book explores the triumph of Expressionism and the emergence of Futurism, characterized by an intensified use of strong color and an increasing embrace of abstract elements. It also addresses the opposite side of the spectrum — the countertrend of Cubism and the use of subdued colors, rigorous structure, and intellectual order.  
Modernist themes, such as celebrating the city and new technologies, are juxtaposed with traditional subjects, particularly figural studies and idealized landscapes, as artists sought to reclaim a lost utopia by adopting the language of classical austerity. 

  • An exploration of how two artistic and diametrically opposed movements shaped an era
  • Includes an introductory text describing the year’s key cultural and historical events 
  • Essays illuminate developments in the arts set against the social upheavals of the times
  • Richly illustrated with 120 colour reproductions of important artworks
  • Written by a team of experts and published in association with the Neue Galerie New York

This fascinating volume provides a contextual background to consider the seismic developments that occurred in the fine arts during the eventful year of 1910.
