Abstractionism, also known as Abstract Art, is a style of art that originated in the early 20th century and is characterized by a focus on form, color, and texture rather than representation. This movement was a major departure from the traditional representational art that had dominated Western art for centuries, and it had a significant impact on the development of modern art.
Abstractionism emerged in several different countries and was influenced by a range of artistic and cultural movements. In Russia, for example, the Suprematist movement led by Kazimir Malevich was a key influence on the development of abstractionism. Malevich believed that art should be purely non-objective and that it should strive for a sense of spiritual purity and transcendence.
In Germany, the Bauhaus school was a major center for the development of abstractionism. Founded by Walter Gropius in 1919, the Bauhaus was an interdisciplinary school that brought together artists, architects, and designers. The school emphasized the importance of simplicity, functionality, and abstraction in design, and it had a significant impact on the development of modernist architecture and design.
In the United States, abstractionism emerged in the 1940s and 1950s as part of the broader movement of Abstract Expressionism. Abstract Expressionist artists such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning sought to create works of art that expressed emotional and spiritual themes through the use of abstract forms and colors.
One of the key features of abstractionism is the use of color and form to create a sense of visual harmony and balance. Many abstractionist artists use geometric shapes and bold colors in their work, and they often explore the relationships between these elements in different ways.
Another important feature of abstractionism is its emphasis on the process of creating art. Many abstractionist artists place a strong emphasis on the act of making art, and they often allow chance and spontaneity to play a role in the creation of their works.
In addition to Abstract Expressionism, other movements that have been associated with abstractionism include Minimalism, Op Art, and Color Field painting. Each of these movements explored different aspects of abstractionism and had a significant impact on the development of modern art.
Today, abstractionism remains an important and influential style of art, and it continues to inspire artists and designers around the world.
