I increasingly depend on Wikipedia for any information I need, seen the encyclopedic evolution of my brain, this is the only way by which I can justify my attitude, should a justification be needed.
If you consult Wikipedia under Modernism, you will see the useful subdivision into Modernism's first and second generation, Modernism after WWII, Modernism in the '60s, and beyond___
roughly from 1884- (Imagism, Futurism, Surrealism, the Bloomsbury Group, Bauhaus, Dada, ...)
the second generation: 1930-1945 [what about Existentialism...]
after WWII: with abstract art (reconstruction and deconstruction, should we mention postmodernism?)
finally Modernism in the '60s and beyond [in literature probably postmodernism tout-court]
