Home›Mid- and Late Twentieth-Century Movements›Place FoundedBrowse ByPlace FoundedPlace founded groups movements by the city or country where each one began. Wikipedia states, "Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality," a tradition rooted in specific European centers before movements spread elsewhere. Browsing by place shows where a movement's ideas first took hold.FactsPlace FoundedSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonCentury of OriginWell-attested20 1Geographic OriginWell-attestedUnited States 1Place FoundedFilter Results11 entriesPeriodAll1880 to 1945 (1)1943 to 1960 (3)1956 to 1975 (5)1960 to 1969 (3)1964 to 1970 (2)1966 to 1975 (1)1967 to 1972 (3)Art Form Expressed InAllArchitecture (4)Dance (1)Film (1)Installation Art (4)Music (3)Painting (7)Photography (1)Printmaking (5)Theatre (1)Area (sq km)All62.47 (1)130.01 (1)240.29 (1)271.94 (1)367.53 (1)438.8 (1)1223.59 (1)1572 (1)9,866,632 (1)10,186,000 (1)24,709,000 (1)Climate ZoneAllDry (1)Temperate (6)Tropical (1)Country CountAll23 (1)44 (1)Elevation BandAllHighland (1)Lowland (6)Sea Level (1)Founding YearAll47 (1)71 (1)1624 (1)1718 (1)1905 (1)Government TypeAllRepublic (1)Highest Elevation (m)All5642 (1)6190 (1)Income GroupAllHigh (1)Independence or Founding YearAll1776 (1)LandlockedAllNo (1)PopulationAll89,519 (1)141,685 (1)383,997 (1)565,301 (1)641,903 (1)855,654 (1)8,804,190 (1)9,089,736 (1)340,587,000 (1)592,296,233 (1)745,173,774 (1)Time ZoneAllUTC+00:00 (2)UTC+01:00 (2)UTC+08:00 (1)UTC-05:00 (1)UTC-06:00 (1)UTC-08:00 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 11EndePlace Founded1 entryEuropePlace Founded4 entriesGenoaPlace Founded1 entryLas VegasPlace Founded1 entryLondonPlace Founded2 entriesNew OrleansPlace Founded1 entryNew York CityPlace Founded3 entriesNorth AmericaPlace Founded7 entriesTurinPlace Founded1 entryUnited StatesPlace Founded1 entryYorkPlace Founded4 entriesSources1.
