Abstract
art is any art which does not contain figurative or representational content however
crudely or naively it may be painted. A true abstract painting is composed only
of shapes and colours. Just as a piece of instrumental music is composed only
of sounds, so an abstract painting is an attempt to convey a mood through the
use of colour, shape and texture. The story of abstract painting began in the
1920's and 30's with Kandinsky and Mondrian bringing different approaches in the
early years. Many European painters later settled in America. After the war New
York became the Mecca of abstract art and the term Abstract Expressionist was
coined to describe painters like Rothko, Pollock and Frankenthaler. In the UK
prominent artist's included Howard Hodgkin, Patrick Heron and later Bridget Riley
with her dizzying 'Op Art' images. cont..,below

Many artists of
the 20th century developed approaches that emphasised design and colour above
perspective and form. The earliest innovators were the Fauves (see Post-Impressionism),
who included Matisse and Dufy, and the cubists; Picasso, Braque, Gris and Leger.
Perhaps inspired by the madness of the First World War, the Surrealists, were
another influential group; Salvador Dali being their most famous member, although
he left the group after only a short time.
The Expressionists were another
European movement who explored the human psyche as well as the physical world;
Munch, Klee, Macke, Klimt and Marc are associated with expressionism. A more realistic
approach can be found in the post-war paintings of American's Georgia O'Keeffe
and Edward Hopper. Hopper's work often presents a rather ironic view of the American
dream. In the 1960's the pop art movement under the influence of Warhol, Lichtenstein,
Johns and others also took contemporary society and consumerism it's suject. In
Britain pop art's leading proponents were David Hockney and Peter Blake.
