Modern Art and the machine: Robert Hughes explores the interaction between the art of the 20th century and significant events of recent world history, beginning with turn-of-the-century Europe when the term "modernism" first came into use. Here he shows how artistic movements such as cubism and futurism mirrored a rapidly changing, technologically - oriented world.

  • Uprated, favorited and shared. I was thrilled by this series when it came out and have been frustrated it has been so hard to see again. Imagine my joy, being an American artist so influenced by Vorticism, and now living in Paris! This inspired me.

  • this could only be fun to upload

  • I rented these videos from the downtown library in 1989. Revisiting them again brings back all that ambition to create again. Thank you Robert Hughes for making them.
