Which photography school reflects the thought of western modernism?

The schools of photography that reflect this idea mainly include "new objectivity" and "surrealism photography".

The "neo-objectivism" photography school originated in Germany in the 1920s, which emphasized the objective and clear description of the real world and abandoned the popular romanticism and expressionism styles. "Surrealism" photography is a photography style that rose in France in 1930s. Influenced by the surrealist art movement, it emphasizes the expression of subconscious and dreams.

Both schools reflect the challenge of western modernism to traditional aesthetics and expression, as well as the exploration of themes such as reality, subconscious and dreams.
