Neo-Baroque, what is it? Neo-Baroque is the revival of the Baroque era and there is a huge amount of evidence that we are currently live in the Neo-Baroque Era. The Baroque era lasted from roughly around the 1600's to the 1750's and consisted of highly extravagant works of art, fashion, and architecture. One example of this would be some of the wigs worn be women in that time frame.

The wigs were over the top and helped show class and importance. Much like the wigs of the Baroque Era. In today's world we go over the top and try to be flashy and show off in every way we can. 

Below is a variety of examples of Neo-Baroque existing in today's world.

    Hello, my name is Nicholas Geronimo. I'm a Junior and a digital arts major studying at the University of Tampa. I'm hoping to be able to get a job modeling characters or landscape for video games. I was born in Texas but with my father in the military I moved around a lot and grew all over the place and i like to claim England as my home, having lived there the longest as well as that's where my family was stationed before I left for college. I am taking this course as it is required for my major and I am hoping it will help me understand art better, or rather understand why some things are considered art even though i don't see it.
