Abstract Art

What is Abstract Art?

This is a question that can not easily be answered, and has been debated by art critics the world over and the whole notion of trying to depict what makes something 'Abstract' is complex.

Abstract Art has had a somewhat turbulent history and is often misconstrued as being non representational to so-called 'Real Art' (And by 'Real Art' I mean an obvious portrayal of something... a house, a person, a field etc) Abstract paintings do not depict objects, people or places in a 'real' sense but represents them in a different way - an abstract way. In the early 20th Century Abstract Art was used to describe paintings that were simplified and scaled down keeping the faintest portrayal of its original subject matter.

A large majority of the work featured on this website is Abstract... Original Abstract paintings derived from each and every artist portrays something... a place, nature, a sunset, a memory in an Abstract way. On close inspection it is not too difficult to see the source of inspiration for each piece.

Colour plays an enormous role in Abstract Art. When shopping for an original art painting one should look at the great detail that has gone into every single brush stroke. Unlike objective art, abstract pieces work harder to delve into the imagination of each spectator, which is why the purchase of an original abstract art painting is very personal... If you can understand a piece of Abstract wall art then it is quite simply meant for you.
