- New Hart's Rules: "Capitalize the names of institutions, organizations, societies, movements, and groups"... e.g. "the Ashcan School"... "The tendency otherwise is to use lower case unless it is important to distinguish a specific from a general meaning"... "Classicists... will often capitalize Classical to define, say, sculpture in the fifth century BC as opposed to that of the Hellenistic era" (p. 92).
- The Guardian and Observer Style Guide: "art movements are generally lowercase, eg art deco, art nouveau, cubism, dadaism, expressionism, gothic, impressionism, pop art, surrealism, etc, but note Bauhaus, Modern (in the sense of Modern British, to distinguish it from "modern art", pre-Raphaelite, Romantic (to differentiate between a romantic painting and a Romantic painting)".[1]
