Life after WW1


After WWI there were many negatives and positives. Some of the negatives were that many people died most soldiers and families that had nothing to do with the war. This also impacted art and the way people thought these were bad because after the war it turned some people insane. The positives were that it gave people such as artists a different view of art giving it a new perspective. Some other reasons to why the war was good; it brought lots of women rights. Women could now vote and work. It also made philosophers think a lot about how humans work and lots of science was discovered such as theory's.

People would question every idea about reason and progress. T.S. Ellioe said "the world was a "waste land" drained of hope and faith. Existentialism believed no meaning to life. Writers and authors got out of Germany and told people what was happening there.

WWI also affected the way art was made. Before the war happend artists would make sure their portraits were perfect and excact to the object they were duplicating. After the war, it messed with lots of artists head this made them start drawing and painting their thoughts and what was going on inside. Piccaso created cubism and he would use it a lot in his art their was also doli who created surilism. Artists, depicty the inner world of emotion and imagination rather than realistic. Pablo Picasso, Cubism in 1907 natural shapes into geometric forms. Surrealism movement to link dreams to real life.

There were many things that WWI effected but another was science and how it was seen. many philosophers saw different theory's. Albert Einstein was one of them he created the thoery of relativity.
