What is Multimedia?

Multimedia refers to an art technique that combines multiple forms of media, such as visual, audio, and digital elements, into a single composition. This is different from mixed media, which involves combining various traditional art materials within one artwork. Multimedia art often integrates technology, like video, sound, or interactive components, allowing artists to create dynamic and immersive experiences. Artists may develop new personal techniques by blending these diverse media, contributing to their unique artistic style.

Funk Art

In the 1960s, Funk Art emerged as a reactive movement against Abstract Expressionism. It was widely known as an anti-establishment movement, with the name derived from the jazz term funky. This term carried both positive and negative connotations: in the jazz world, it described passion, quirkiness, and sensuality, but it could also refer to a foul odor. Funk Art was particularly popular in the California Bay Area. While the artists of the Funk Art era shared similar attitudes and styles, they did not see themselves as part of a formal group or movement.

Photorealism

Photorealism is a genre of art or artistic movement that involves drawing, painting, and other graphic media in which the artist carefully studies a photograph and attempts to reproduce it as realistically as possible in another medium. While the term can broadly describe any artwork created in this manner, it specifically refers to a group of painters and paintings in the U.S. art movement that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Land Art

Also referred to as Earth Art, Earthworks, or Environmental Art, Land Art is a sculptural movement that involves creating artworks that integrate conceptual or physical elements of the earth or landscape into the finished piece. These works often interact directly with the environment, using natural materials and settings to explore themes related to nature, place, and time
