About the artwork

Abstract art is a movement within visual art where the emphasis is not on the realistic representation of recognisable objects, figures or landscapes, but rather on expressing emotions, ideas, shapes and colours in a non-literal way. In abstract art, traditional forms and representation are often abandoned in favour of non-figurative or non-realistic elements.

Abstract artists try to challenge the viewer to look beyond the surface and involve their own interpretations and feelings in the artwork. This can result in a wide range of compositions, colour schemes's, shapes and lines that invite the viewer to use their imagination and find their own meaning in the artwork.

Abstract art emerged in the early 20th century as a reaction to realism and impressionism, and it marked a shift in the art world towards more experimental and expressive forms of artistic expression. Famous abstract artists include Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian, Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko.

There are different styles within abstract art, such as abstract expressionism, geometric abstraction, colour planes, action painting and more. Each style has its own characteristics and approaches, but in general abstract art is about releasing the imagination and creating visual stimuli that challenge and inspire the viewer.
