Modern art includes artistic work produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s till now, and denotes the style and Philosophy of the art produced during that era.The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation. Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art. A tendency away from the narrative art, which was characteristic for the traditional arts, toward abstraction is characteristic of much modern art. More recent artistic production is often called contemporary or post modern art.

The notion of modern art is closely related to modernism. With the onset of modern culture this art originated complementing the culture. Thus the change of culture and thinking and social norms gave birth to this form of art which made it different from the earlier versions of art.Although modern Sculpture and architecture are reckoned to have emerged at the end of the 19th century, the beginnings of modern Paintings can be located earlier. The date perhaps most commonly identified as marking the birth of modern art is 1863. The pioneers of modern art were the Romantics, new age philosophers, Realists and Impressionists. By the late 19th century, additional movements which were to be influential in modern art had begun to emerge as Symbolism. The most successful painters of the day worked either through commissions or through large public exhibitions of their own work. There were official, government-sponsored painters' unions, while governments regularly held public exhibitions of new fine and decorative arts.

The Impressionists argued that people do not see objects but only the light which they reflect, and therefore painters should paint in natural light rather than in studios and should capture the effects of light in their work. Impressionist artists formed a group, which, despite internal tensions, mounted a series of independent exhibitions. The style was adopted by artists in different nations, in preference to a "national" style. These factors established the view that it was a Revolutionary movement. These traits establishment of a working method integral to the art, establishment of a movement or visible active core of support, and international adoption—would be repeated by artistic movements in the Modern period in art.
