The evolution of modernity in art is marked by continuous ruptures, reinventions, and the interplay between tradition and innovation. Movements like Cubism, Dada, Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, and Pop Art challenged conventions, expanding art's definition. Postmodernism further dissolved aesthetic hierarchies, emphasizing intertextuality, appropriation, and conceptual frameworks. Today, technology, especially AI and digital media, reshapes creativity, raising questions about authorship, originality, and ethics. AI-generated art challenges the artist's role as an autonomous creator, while corporate algorithms influence artistic visibility and commodify digital aesthetics. Modernity in art is an evolving condition, reflecting tensions between human agency, technology, and institutional structures. As art pushes boundaries, navigating ethical, legal, and aesthetic challenges in a digitized world becomes crucial. This study highlights the need for adaptive, inclusive approaches to creativity in the 21st century, situating artistic evolution within broader sociocultural and technological contexts.
