examples of artisic styles in modernity and today
style and avant-garde: Ballet Mécanique about | movie
because contemporary visual and design culture (web design, motion graphics, etc.) is often experimental in its intentions, history and theory of modern art and experimental film and animation may provide better tools for understanding it than, say, theory of narrative cinema | motion graphics influences
