Movement

Helena: Miss Halliwell, my brother and I hold an extensive collection of antiquities. If we were to retain your firm, you'd be cataloging, appraising and selling the finest pieces you'd see in your career. Maybe your life.
Prue: Just what kind of collection are we talking about exactly?
Helena: The kind that occupies three buildings at Warehouse Flats. We have art and artifacts from every period and movement in history. From Egyptian mummies to Jasper Johns.

Does "movement" here mean "campaign", as in "the women's movement"?
