(3) ABSTRACT AND

FIGURATIVE ART

ABSTRACT ART

can be a painting or sculpture

(including assemblage) that
does not depict a person, place
or thing in the natural world -even in an extremely distorted
or exaggerated way. Therefore,
the subject of the work is based
on what you see: color, shapes,
brushstrokes, size, scale and, in
some cases, the process (see
action painting). Abstract art
began in 1911 with such works
as Picture with a Circle (1911)
by the Russian artist Wassily
Kandinsky (1866-1944).

Curvilinear Abstract Art

This type of curvilinear abstraction is strongly

associated with Celtic Art, which employed a
range of abstract motifs including knots (eight
basic types), interlace patterns, and spirals
(including the triskele, or the triskelion).

These motifs were not original to the Celts many other early cultures had been utilizing
these Celtic designs for centuries: see for
instance the spiral engravings at the Neolithic
Passage Tomb at Newgrange in Co Meath,
created some 2000 years before the
appearance of the Celts.

These patterns later re-emerged as decorative

elements in early illuminated manuscripts (c.
600-1000 CE).

Colour-Related or Light-Related Abstract Art

This type is exemplified in

works by Turner and Monet,
that use colour (or light) in such
a way as to detach the work of
art from reality, as the object
dissolves in a swirl of pigment.

Two instances of Turner's style

of expressive abstraction have
already been mentioned, to
which we can add his Interior at
Petworth (1837, Tate
Collection).

Emotional or Intuitional Abstract Art

This type of intuitional art

embraces a mix of styles, whose
common theme is a naturalistic
tendency. This naturalism is
visible in the type of shapes and
colours employed. Unlike
Geometric Abstraction, which is
almost anti-nature, intuitional
abstraction often evokes nature,
but in less representational ways.

Two important sources for this

type of abstract art are: Organic
Abstraction (also called
Biomorphic abstraction) and
Surrealism.
