Sorry, but the term "contemporary" art isn't a movement in art. That means contemporary art of the 1920s is art that was in the process of being created during the 1920s, and contemporary art of today is art that is being created today. To answer your question literally, contemporary art starts now. But I think you may mean when did the idea of modern art come into play. I would say the 1950s are the start of what we call modern art and that it turned into modern art in roughly the 1970s.

What art stlye does Mississippi monday belong to?

Missisippi Monday is made by Romare Bearden using collage technique.His style is considered to be too realistic to be avant-garde abstract, which was the contemporary way doing art at his time. One can see glimpses of cubism and expressionism in his work too, however his art pieces do not entirely fit in these cathegories either.Bearden himself tried to portray humanism in his works, however that is not an estabished art style form.Missisippi Monday is, in that sense, a collage also on the style, not just the technique. But if you had to say one art style, it would be abstract.
