Abstract art is an artistic movement born at the beginning of the 20th century that attempts to give a new representation of reality. Breaking with the concept of traditional, figurative art, abstraction seeks emotion through form and color. It is an art that does not resort to the representation or evocation of the reality of a landscape, still life or portrait. Artists such as Vasily Kandinsky, Kasimir Malevich and Piet Mondrian do not seek to deliver a message or express a precise idea in their paintings. They create their own language, that of emotion, of a world that abstracts from reality. They create a visual experience that arouses emotions specific to each individual. Jackson Pollock once said: "Abstract painting is abstract. It confronts you." Faced with abstract works, free your mind of all thought and let the painting move you. This selection allows you to browse through works by both gallery-represented and non-represented artists, all of whom describe their work as influenced by the abstract movement. Great discoveries!
