Two of the most unique and influential new art movements of the twentieth century were pop art and abstract expressionism. While they both emerged roughly ten years apart, in the 1950’s and the 1940’s respectively; on the surface they’re two vastly different though, in reality they are more alike than they may seem. Abstract expressionism is what most would think of when they hear the words “abstract art.” When you first look at a work of abstract expressionism there seems to be no…

Lear see’s himself as man above those around him, his understanding of life and of nature give him justification to act as he pleases, he is the king. He has a sense of patriarchy and possession over every character in the play. During his rant, Lear revokes his kinship with Cordelia by stating that he no longer claims ownership over her blood.
