Art conceptuelvignette|Art and Language, Untitled Painting, 1965 Courtesy Tate Modern L'art conceptuel est un mouvement de l'art contemporain apparu dans les années 1960 mais dont les origines remontent aux ready-made de Marcel Duchamp au début du . L'art est défini non par les propriétés esthétiques des objets ou des œuvres, mais seulement par le concept ou l'idée de l'art. L'art conceptuel n'est pas une période précise de l'art contemporain, ni un mouvement artistique structuré ou un groupe d'artistes précis.
Installation artInstallation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space. Generally, the term is applied to interior spaces, whereas exterior interventions are often called public art, land art or art intervention; however, the boundaries between these terms overlap. Installation art can be either temporary or permanent. Installation artworks have been constructed in exhibition spaces such as museums and galleries, as well as public and private spaces.
Post-conceptual artPost-conceptual, postconceptual, post-conceptualism or postconceptualism is an art theory that builds upon the legacy of conceptual art in contemporary art, where the concept(s) or idea(s) involved in the work takes some precedence over traditional aesthetic and material concerns. The term first came into art school parlance through the influence of John Baldessari at the California Institute of the Arts in the early 1970s.
Neo-conceptual artNeo-conceptual art describes art practices in the 1980s and particularly 1990s to date that derive from the conceptual art movement of the 1960s and 1970s. These subsequent initiatives have included the Moscow Conceptualists, United States neo-conceptualists such as Sherrie Levine and the Young British Artists, notably Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin in the United Kingdom, where there is also a Stuckism counter-movement and criticism from the 1970s conceptual art group Art and Language.
Arts visuelsLes arts visuels sont les arts qui produisent des objets perçus essentiellement par l'œil. Ils englobent les arts plastiques traditionnels (les anciens beaux-arts dégagés de la notion restrictive d'esthétique, comme du « beau »), auxquels s'ajoutent les techniques nouvelles : la photographie, le cinéma, l'art vidéo et l'art numérique, mais aussi les arts appliqués, les arts décoratifs (art textile, design, marqueterie...) et l'architecture.
