Abstractionism – Examples, PDF

Abstracion has evolved from its late 19th-century roots to the present day. Very adaptable, abstract art may be subdivided into many subgenres without losing its identity as a universal artistic movement. This ranges from Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism through Lyrical Abstraction and Color Field painting and Post-Painterly Abstraction.

What is Abstractionism

The term Abstractionism may be used to describe works of art that are based on a person, objective, or landscape but in which the shapes have been reduced or schematized. It is also used to describe works of art that make use of forms, such as geometric shapes or gestural markings, that are not based on any external visual reality in any way. In history and politics, abstractionism was used to describe movements like communism and socialism to influence society. In today’s modernity, these types of art can be found even on advertisements as a revolutionary way to attract consumers.

How to do Abstractionism

Since it asks you to conceive about concepts in ways that don’t reflect the objective world and to perceive in novel ways, Abstractionism challenges your imagination and helps you grow. The best approach to train your imagination is to release it from the constraints of reality.

Step 1: Focus within rather than outward

Remembering that there is no such thing as “bad” in abstract art is the single most crucial thing to keep in mind while creating such works. Instead of looking around you for inspiration, try reflecting on your inner experiences and seeing what you can draw. This is also a common practise in symbolism (see examples of symbolism in poetry and short story)

Step 2: Pay homage to the greats

Do this exercise: dissect a masterpiece into its component parts, paying little attention to the finer aspects. Attempt a new layout by redoing the shapes (either by hand or using paper templates) and then redrawing them.

Step 3: Do it first in black and white

The most revolutionary action you can do is to just let your guard down and play. If you’re just starting out with abstract art, you may find it helpful to focus on forms and composition first, before going on to color (read examples of color chart here).

Step 4: Focus on space

The organization of space is the primary concern for the abstract artist. Think of everything as contributing to the whole as much as possible.

Step 5: Make it big

Artists who don’t believe in themselves often create insignificant works. Don’t be scared to dive in with some larger designs so you can get some perspective as you go.

Step 6: Doodle

The painting process itself is significant, since each choice has consequences for the final product. Doodling is a great way to see where your ideas could go, whether you’re working with paper or clay, whether you’re entirely open-minded or if you already have a hazy notion in mind.

FAQs

Artistic abstraction isn’t popular. It has a dedicated (and rising) following and dominates prestigious New York art galleries. Many artists and appreciators stay away, possibly because they’re afraid or don’t trust those snobbish galleries. They probably don’t understand abstract art because they’ve never seen it.
