First off, modern art as a movement took place before and during the 20th century, starting during the late 1860's and ending in the late 1960's, thus it is safe to state that 20th century art was influenced by modern art.
However, if the question refers to art created in current times, or contemporary art, it was importantly influenced by the abstract expressionist movement as well as the pop art movement, and in a lesser manner by cubism.
Abstract expressionism is characterized by the lack of define shapes, while the colors are supposed to project the author's intentions.
Pop art, or Popular art, is characterized by the use of everyday items as the object of the art, which we see quite often in art of this decade.
Finally, cubism is the decomposition of objects, integrating them with different physical viewpoints.
