What is Modern Art? It is a really good question. Generally, it includes different styles and movements of Art.

In 1860s artists started creating works of art in unusual, fresh ways. The term “Modern Art” refers to those works of art, created somewhere between 1860s and 1970s.

The first movement was Impressionism. It was an art movement in France at the end of the 19th century. 

The Impressionists were always searching for a more exact analysis of colour and light in nature. They tried to capture the atmosphere of a particular time of day and the fleeting effects of different weather conditions.

That was why they had to work very quickly. Besides, they were the first group of artists who worked ‘en plein air’ (outside). 

It is important to say, that Impressionism was the first movement in the canon of modern art. It contributed greatly to the development of art in the 20th century.

Artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin and Georges Seurat pushed the boundaries of the style. Thus, Van Gogh pushed art towards Expressionism, Cézanne was the “father” of Cubism, and Gauguin turned to Fauvism.

2. Wheatstack
3. Water lilies and the Japanese bridge
4. Water Lilies
5. Camille Monet on a Garden Bench

Task 10 – Read the text. Mark the sentences True / False / Not Stated

Claude Monet was the founder of the French Impressionism. The very term “Impressionism” comes from the title of his painting “Impression, Sunrise”, which was painted in 1872 and was exhibited in 1874.

He often painted the same things many times, because he wanted to capture the changing of light.

Thus, he painted a whole series, depicting his flower garden in Giverny. For example, the painting “Water lilies and the Japanese bridge”, created somewhere between 1897-1899. It is important to say, that he painted his lilies in vertical views making the Japanese bridge the central feature.

This scenery, its alternating light and reflections were an integral part of his work. Later he made the flowers and the water the central figures. It can be observed in the painting “Water Lilies”, created in 1915

Claude Monet painted not only flowers, water, but also wheat stacks. This “Wheatstack” was finished in 1891.

However, it should be noted, that Claude Monet often painted portraits. Take, for example, this portrait of his wife, finished in 1873.

So, as you can see, Claude Monet was an extraordinary painter, who revolutionized the Traditional Art.

1. Monet’s painting “Impression, Sunrise” was exhibited in 1875. – True / False / Not Stated
2. Monet never painted the same things. — True / False / Not Stated
3. He had a house in Giverny. — True / False / Not Stated
4. The painting “Water Lilies” was created between 1897-1899. — True / False / Not Stated
5. He painted a whole series devoted to wheatstacks. — True / False / Not Stated
6. In 1873 Monet painted a portrait of his wife. — True / False / Not Stated

Task 11 — Read the text. Put the paragraphs in the right order.

1. As you see, Modern art unites lots of different movements. Sometimes it’s hard for us to understand the meaning of the painting, but we should remember the proverb “Tastes differ”. We are not the ones to judge. All the painters were really great people of their times!
2. Later Impressionism painters pushed the boundaries of the style.
3. One fresh movement is called Cubism. The movement was pioneered by Pablo Picasso. In Cubist painting, objects are broken into fragments and reorganized into geometric shapes.
4. Such style as Surrealism can be seen in the paintings by Salvador Dali. The movement began in 1920 when a group of visual artists adopted automatism, a technique that relied on the subconscious for creativity. So, in these paintings we can see dreams, hallucinations, automatic or random image generation.
5. That was why Realism painters like Honoré Daumier and Gustave Courbet focused their attention on different social classes, depicting social issues and poorer members of society.
6. This style gave birth to Impressionism in 1860s. impressionists wanted to use visible brushstrokes, vivid colors with little mixing. Besides, their goal was to capture the emotion of light and movement in their compositions. It is important to say, that Impressionists were the first to paint en plein air. Such painters as Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Frédéric Bazille were the first to introduce this movement.
7. First of all, we should speak about Realism. This genre appeared after the French Revolution of 1848. People rejected Romanticism, the style, which dominated before. Painters of this new movement wanted to focus on scenes of contemporary people and their daily life. It was an attempt to revolutionise Art. All the painters were tired of depicting scenes from mythology and the Bible, or creating portraits of the nobility. After the Revolution it was out-of-date.
8. We often use the term of “an Art movement”. But what is it? Generally, an Art movement is a style or tendency in art. It is formed by a group of artists, having a common goal and similar philosophy. Art movements are restricted by a period of time.

Task 12 – Read the characteristic features of art movements and match

What is the Russian for ‘cut’? What does ‘cut’ mean?

The word has many meanings. In film−making, when the director says ‘Cut!’, they stop filming. In Russian, the director says ‘Снято!’
You can often see the same word in instructions: ‘Cut the plastic into squares. … Cut three strips of cord. … Cut a hole in the box.’ Here the word ‘cut’ means ‘use the scissors’. In Russian it is «Разрежь…», «Нарежь…», «Вырежи…».
How do we know which meaning it is? The context (the words around) helps us.

Что по−русски означает «cut (резать)»? Что значит «cut (резать)»?

2. My father cuts the grass on Sundays. − Мой папа подстригает траву по воскресеньям.

3. He usually paints in oils. − Обычно он рисует масляными красками.

Упражнение 9, с. 55

9. Think! Prepare a slide show or a lecture to raise awareness about rainforests. — Подумайте! Подготовьте слайд-шоу или лекцию для повышения осведомлённости о тропических лесах.

The rainforests are home to many unique plants and animals. We rely on a lot of the plants for many of the treatments used in modern medicine, but the rainforests are vanishing at an alarming rate and need our help.

The rainforests, which some people call the lungs of the planet because they take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, are disappearing because of deforestation. Logging companies cut down the trees for timber and farmers clear areas to graze their cattle on. This not only destroys the plants in the forest but also the homes of many animals.

The rainforests are a beautiful and vital natural resource that benefits all of mankind. We cannot allow them to disappear any longer and must do everything we can to save them.

В тропических лесах обитает множество уникальных растений и животных. Мы полагаемся на многие растения для многих методов лечения, используемых в современной медицине, но тропические леса исчезают с угрожающей скоростью и нуждаются в нашей помощи.

Тропические леса, которые некоторые называют лёгкими планеты, поскольку они поглощают углекислый газ и выделяют кислород, исчезают из-за вырубки. Лесозаготовительные компании вырубают деревья для получения древесины, а фермеры расчищают территории для выпаса скота. Это уничтожает не только растения в лесу, но и жилища многих животных.

Тропические леса — это прекрасный и жизненно важный природный ресурс, который приносит пользу всему человечеству. Мы не можем допустить их дальнейшего исчезновения и должны сделать всё возможное для их спасения.

IAN FLEMING

Ian Fleming was the writer who invented James Bond. Casino Royale, published

in 1953, was the fi rst novel in which this character appeared. Fleming went on to

write eleven more James Bond novels before his death in 1964.

As a young man, Fleming’s ambition was to join the British Foreign Offi ce. But he

failed to get a job there, which was a great disappointment for him. Although he

had never intended to be a writer, he got a job as a journalist for Reuters News

Agency. Then, at the start of World War Two, Fleming became a secret information

offi cer in the Royal Navy.

Leaving the navy in 1945, Fleming took the decision to write. But it was his work

for the navy, which included several secret expeditions, that had given him the

ideas for his James Bond novels.

The fi rst James Bond novel to be made into a fi lm was Dr No, in 1962. The fi lm,

starring Sean Connery, was a huge success.

Nobody really knows what makes the James Bond stories so successful. But now,

half a century after Fleming’s death, they are as popular as ever.
