For homework, please find your own example of a piece of work (literature, art, film, etc.), an event, an era, or any other aspect of culture that epitomizes the attitudes of Modernism. Please explain how it does so, and provide a visual. Also, if possible, explain what this particular work/event/era transitioned from (A.K.A., what were they rebelling against?), and any happenings that may have sparked this transition. Respond to at least two other responses.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg
