**Response 1**: Art movements really capture the vibe of their era, you know? Like, when you look at Impressionism, it was all about capturing fleeting moments and the effects of light. That kind of reflects the fast-paced changes happening in the late 19th century. Artists were responding to the world around them, like the rise of urban life and new technologies.

**Response 2**: Totally! Art movements are like a mirror to society. For example, the Dada movement came about after World War I, and it was all about rejecting traditional values and questioning everything. It’s like the artists were saying, “Look at the chaos around us!” So, you can see how the mood of the time shapes what artists create.

**Response 3**: Yeah, for sure! Think about the Surrealists. They were influenced by the psychological theories of Freud and the turmoil of the early 20th century. Their art explored dreams and the subconscious, reflecting a time when people were starting to think differently about the mind and reality. It’s like they were tapping into the collective feelings and anxieties of their time.
