The Modern Age
rick steves art of europe

Tue, Oct 8 4:00 P.M. NH World (11.3)  

In the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution spawned new artistic styles: idealized Romanticism, light-chasing Impressionism, sensuous Art Nouveau. Then Europe's tumultuous 20th century inspired rule-breaking art as exciting as the times: from Expressionism and Cubism to Surrealism to Abstract. The genius of artists like Van Gogh, Picasso, and Dalí express the complexity of our modern world.

About Rick Steves Art of Europe:

RICK STEVES ART OF EUROPE is the culmination of Rick showcasing Europe's great art and architecture on public television for three decades.

This ambitious, six-part sweep through the span of European art history weaves the greatest masterpieces into a fascinating story that's both entertaining and inspiring.

Climbing deep into prehistoric tombs on remote Scottish isles, summiting Michelangelo's magnificent dome at the Vatican, waltzing through glittering French palaces, and pondering the genius of Picasso and Van Gogh, Rick does for art what he does for travel - makes it fun and accessible.
