What is not modern art, what is on second. Art is the guy I worked for
in my first programming job. He was no more or less modern than anyone
else I know.

saw when his eyes were closed. And this as an idea was based the book The
World of Color, by David Katz in which he discussed a sensation of color
perception called 'film color.' (nothing to do with photography film, by the
way.)
I didn't see any pics of Longo's paintings on the net but i know he had a
retrospective at the Times Square gallery of hunter college last fall.

current or modern time period equals current time period.
modern dress, modern values, etc.
that's why they invented post modern, now the problem is post-post-modern.
Its the old problem described by Thoreau - an Indian tribe has one word for
day. for yesterday they say their word for day and point backwards - for
tomorrow they say their word for day and point forwards - for to day they
say their word for today and point upwards.
So you say the phrase modern art and point in one of three directions of
course you have to invent a word for pointing in each of those directions if
you are using text communication.

Modern Art usually refers to the artwork allowed into museums done
after 1900 until the present. Critics are always trying to think of
new names for the period but are relatively unsuccessful.
Modern Art fundamentalist think its the only valid art done in that
time frame and are hardly aware of anything else that was done.
No skill no art!

No, but it is part of colour theory, which is an aspect of the study
that can lead to art. What you see when you close your eyes is the
complementary colours of what you have just been looking at. This is
called something like successive contrast. When we see a colour, the
physiological reaction is that the eye attempts to create a balance by
visualising its complement.
> What is modern art?
No, at this point it is just an optical phenomenon.

during his surrealist period.
