Abstract
painting is understood to mean a non representational way of
art. Also known as a “non figurative art” or “non objective art”
as described since early 20th century. However abstract art
expressions have been around as early as people could draw on
dirt, including Western, Islamic, and Asian cultures. Some of
the American Abstract expressionists in a purely abstract art
include: Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning to
name just a few. Abstract art is a distinct form of pattern
making in designing an object in a thoughtful contemplation
process; one which becomes within its own right. In today’s
world we have gain other forms of abstract art contributions
such as Constructivism (1915) and De stijl (1917) and the latest
Op art (1962) and Minimalism (1965).
