Contemporary art is a term used to describe art produced by living artists in the present day. It can also refer to art produced in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Contemporary art is often characterized by its diversity and lack of a unifying principle or ideology.
Contemporary art can include a wide range of mediums, such as:
video, installations, performance, interactive works, new media, design, and architecture.
