James Meyer’s Minimalism takes the reader throughout the genesis of the avant-garde style that emerged in the 1960’s that exhibits single or repeated geometric forms with emphasis on sculpture. Then on to its high period in the mid 1960’s where the movement gained clarification about its tenets. Then the book culminates with the analysis of minimalism during its canonization period in the late 1960’s where this American form acquired an international profile. Lastly the book looks at Minimalism towards

Fauvist artists were the first to break with Impressionism as well as with older‚ traditional methods of perception. Fauvism‚ which was created in 1905‚ was categorized by explosive use of many colors enhanced with impulsive brushwork. This was a progression of the colorist tradition that was first held by the Impressionists (the Impressionists were known for using short brush strokes with pure color in combination with flat colored curvilinear planes that were probably inspired by Gaugin). Therefore

Roy Grounds was a pioneer within Australian Modern architecture‚ and worked with the changes of the world to urban environments and construction to create progressive designs and does this while still maintaining the same geometric language across a wide scale of work.

(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab(a + b); a3 + b3 = (a + b)3 − 3ab(a + b) 5.

As time passed‚ the Egyptian culture grew and matured. They began to be increasingly wealthy and subsequently started to spend more time on the aesthetic portions of life. It was this progression of their culture that influenced their funerary architectures and art.
