Larisa loves to paint, especially abstract paintings. But what are abstract paintings? When and why did this artistic style begin?
Abstract paintings are works of art that challenge convention and move away from realistic representation. This artistic style was born in the 20th century and focuses on shapes, colors, abstract concepts, rather than on recognizable figures or objects. But why are abstract paintings so fascinating?
1 Creative Freedom: Artists are free to express their emotions and visions without restrictions. They are not bound by the need to depict reality, which opens up a world of possibilities.
2 Composition of Colors and Shapes: Abstract paintings often feature a vibrant palette and bold contrasts. The shapes can be geometric, organic or completely free.
3 Art Movements: Over time, various art movements have embraced abstraction. Some examples include Cubism, Abstract Expressionism, Suprematism, and Informal Art.
4 Personal Interpretation: The beauty of abstract paintings lies in their subjectivity. Each viewer can interpret them differently, creating a unique dialogue between the work and those who observe it.
5 Famous Artists: Many artists have contributed to the world of abstract art. Some well-known names include Wassily Kandinsky, Jackson Pollock, Piet Mondrian, Mark Rothko and Joan Miro.
