Opposition to or rejection of classical traditions, standards, and aesthetic principles; anticlassical ideology.
From anticlassical + -ism. Similar to anticlassicalism but sometimes used interchangeably; both name the philosophical opposition to classicism.
Anticlassicism isn't just about making ugly art—it's a deliberate intellectual movement saying 'the rules that governed beauty for 2,000 years are wrong; let's invent new rules.'
