ARTWORKS RELATED TO SWEDEN

Kinetic art is an international movement that emerged in the 1920s and gained prominence in the 1960s, referring to art that involves both apparent and real motion. It encompasses any medium that includes movement, either relying on actual motion for its effect or being perceived as moving by the viewer. Early examples include canvas paintings designed to create optical illusions of movement. Today, kinetic art often refers to three-dimensional figures and sculptures, such as those operated by machines or those that move naturally. The movement covers a variety of styles and techniques that frequently overlap.

Massurrealism is a portmanteau word coined by American artist James Seehafer in 1992. He observed a trend among postmodern artists who blended themes and aesthetic styles with mass media, including elements of pop art. Massurrealism is a development of surrealism that emphasizes the technological effects on the imagery of contemporary surrealism. The key difference between massurrealism and surrealism is that the latter was founded in Europe at the beginning of the 20th century, while massurrealism is rooted in the influence of modern technology and media.
