Description
Abstract Expressionism emerged as a reaction against the prevailing styles of realism and figuration, and its practitioners sought to express their inner emotions and experiences through the use of abstract forms and colors. The movement was characterized by a wide range of techniques, including action painting, color field painting, lyrical abstraction, hard-edge painting, and collage.
The artists of Abstract Expressionism were a diverse group, but they shared a common goal of breaking away from traditional artistic conventions and creating a new, more expressive form of art. Among the most influential Abstract Expressionists were Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, and Clyfford Still.
Abstract Expressionism had a profound impact on American culture and the global art world. It helped to establish New York City as a major center of the art world, and its influence can be seen in the work of subsequent generations of artists, including Pop Art, Minimalism, and Conceptual Art.
In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in Abstract Expressionism, and a new generation of artists has emerged who are drawing inspiration from its legacy. **Modern American Abstract Expressionists: A Survey** provides a comprehensive overview of this important movement, and its insights will be invaluable to anyone interested in the history of art, American culture, or the creative process.
This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of art, American culture, or the creative process. It is also a valuable resource for artists, students, and collectors.
