Maggie Nemecz

1. Renoir (1841–1919) was a part of the impressionist movement and was one of the main contributers to starting the impressionist style.

2. Rothko (September 25, 1903 – February 25, 1970) was apart of the abstract expressionism and color field movements. Rothko was a abstract expressionist but he did not claim himself to be one. His "multi-form" style of painting became a signature style.

3. Riley (born Apri 24, 1931 -) was apart of the optical art movement. Bridget Riley was a major contributer to the op art style. Her optical illusion styles are very well known even today.

4. Rauschenberg (October 22, 1925 – May 12, 2008) was a printmaker and a sculpter. He mad a transition from abstract expressionism to pop art with his prints. He was apart of the neo dada movement which is both audio and visual art.

5. Reinhardt (December 24, 1913 – August 30, 1967) was an abstract painter. Alike to my other artists he was a part of the movement centered around the Betty Parsons Gallery that became known as Abstract Expressionism. He was a founder of the Artist's club. Along with painting his work, he lectured to people about major influence on conceptual and minimal art.
