Which Movement Are You?




which art movement are you?
this quiz was made by Caitlin

"Baroque Art emerged in Europe around 1600 as an reaction against the intricate and formulaic Mannerist style which dominated the Late Renaissance." (artcyclopedia.com.) Baroque Art is fairly realistic but is often willing to smudge the realism in favor of theatricality and the emotional pull that is its trademark. You're most likely a creative, talented emotional person who likes attention. Although it could all just be a show.
Famous Baroquers (there are lots): Rembrandt, Rubens, Caravaggio, and You.

I too am baroque. Did not choose my first option, the microwave, though, which may have altered the answers. Lie to myself!

Everytime I take these tests I end up being somethin I can't spell... for this one I was somethin like "rentalseance", and of course i have no way of verifying information I can't spell. Can someone look this up and tell me how accurate it is? Thank yours in advance.

Um, Renaissance for me. Fair 'nuff.

I'm so baroque I can't even pay attention!

Oh......sorry. Wrong blog.

No, really, though....I feel more baroque than Renaissance. But, the day that I begin to believe everything a quiz says about me is the day that I come to believe that aliens really did impregnate me back in 1947.

Baroque... when you're out of Monet.

Sorry, had to. Compelled. No fault of my own.
Really. :)
