Morphology
The meaning of 'art movement' is directly derivable from combining 'art' (creative activity) with 'movement' (a group or trend), yielding a collective or trend within art; this follows a common English compounding pattern. Cross-linguistic equivalents (e.g., Spanish 'movimiento artístico', French 'mouvement artistique') and the transparent semantic relation make this immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Art movement may come from the simple picture of many artists going together toward the same art ideas. The word movement gives the image of people moving in one direction, so the phrase means 'a group of artists who share the same style or goals'.
