 | | Among soldiers, civilians also suffered greatly in the Second -- from the bombing of cities on both sides, and in the German genocide of the Jews and others, known as the Holocaust. | | | This war also involved Asia and the Pacific, in the form of Japanese aggression against China and the United States. | | | The 20th century has sometimes been called, both within and outside the United States, the American Century, though this is a controversial term. |

| | 20th century classical music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Stravinsky, who studied as a young man with Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov, became a modernist, then a neoclassicist, and ultimately became a serialist upon Schoenberg's death. | | | For instance, at different times during his career, Igor Stravinsky may be considered a romantic, modernist, neoclassicist, and a serialist. | | | Modernism is the name given to a series of movements (See Modernism) arising out of the idea that the 20th century presented a new basis for society and activity, and therefore art should adopt this new basis, however construed, as the fundamental of aesthetics. |

| | In the early years of the century, the so-called fauve artists ("wild beasts") in France, led by Henri Matisse, experimented with vivid, highly saturated colors and bold brushwork to evoke intense emotional responses. | | | Throughout the twentieth century, artists in the vanguard have repeatedly challenged convention by exploring new avenues of expression and seeking alternative forms to embody new ideas. | | | Later, artists such as the Russian Wassily Kandinsky carried these experiments further, creating abbreviated shapes that, however abstract, were meant to stand for specific concepts or forms. |
