The turn of the 20th century was a time rife with change, chiefly in the way in which people began to perceive civilization as a whole and its overall goal. The outbreak of World War I, or the supposed War to End All Wars, and the unprecedented devastation that ensued challenged the foundations of many cultures’ belief systems, which led to a great deal of experimentation and exploration by artists with morality and in defining what exactly Art should be and do for a culture.
