Neo-Gothic art movement

|
Neo-Gothic Art is an art movement that grew in popularity during the early 1980s. The movement is inspired by gothic subculture and its artists usually creating paintings, photography and sculptures. The movement is unrelated to the Gothic Revival architecture movement. The Neo-Gothic Art Movement started in the 1980s as folk art created by amateur artists but it has since become acceptable for art galleries to show Neo-Gothic Art. Famous Neo-Gothic artists like Floria Sigismondi now operate professional art studios and even direct music videos for musicians like Marilyn Manson or making CD cover art for gothic bands like Evanescence. As an art movement it has a tendency to shadow the music and movie industries, with artwork sometimes appearing in gothic oriented movies. The Neo-Gothic Manifesto The manifesto of the Neo-Gothic art movement was written by Canadian artist Charles Moffat in the Winter of 2001. In it he called upon artists to rebel against religion and social norms, to defy "old fashioned sexuality" and religion.
