The Beauty of an Abstract Painting

The art of abstract Painting began a very long time ago. Artists began this art several hundred years ago. In fact, you have probably seen some of the more famous abstract Paintings before. You may recall a famous abstract Painting created by Van Gogh. Picasso also had an abstract Painting or two as well. Modigliani is also known for his abstract Painting work. Because of these artists, and many others, the art of abstract Painting has gained popularity in the modern world.

Now what exactly is an abstract Painting? An abstract Painting is defined in many ways. First off, an abstract Painting does not depict reality like traditional Paintings. In the beginning, most art was depicting a photographic or realistic expression of someone or something. But an abstract Painting does not do this. The definition of an abstract Painting is that an abstract Painting does not depict objects in the natural world. Rather, an abstract Painting uses colors and shapes in a non-representing and nonobjective manner. It can be of anyone, anything, or just nothing at all.

You can easily see this when you look at an abstract Painting. An abstract Painting has bold, bright, and vivid colors. An abstract Painting also has many biometric shapes that are used with the bold colors to make the artwork stand out. It is both strange and beautiful to look at an abstract Painting.

In the 1940's a movement called Abstract Expressionism was started. This movement was started to show the freedom of an artist's expression and to push the art of abstract Painting. It was started in New York in a school that also called it Action Painting. This school was one of the first American schools that declared its independence from the European style of artwork. They liked to think of their art as a form of spiritual and intellectual art. This then further pushed the art of abstract Painting.

Now that you know the history of the art of abstract Painting you may come to understand it better. It is important to appreciate all forms of art, including the odd art of an abstract Painting. You may find yourself wanting to get a piece of this artwork for yourself. It is truly an interesting thing to look at.
