It rejects the mysticism of abstract expressionism and any residual references to the outside world. It is a purely factual art that functions more in terms of basic elements of the medium itself; form, color, texture, form and so on. Bright colors, clear and open compositions.
Theory says that the most important thing in an abstract expressionism is the impression it creates. When creating abstract paintings, abstract artists refine the light, color palette, composition, and texture. This process is often much more complex than in the case of representational painting. Well-composed abstract paintings are consistent in every respect. This formal precision has a very simple reason: the method of abstract expressionism results from the lack of a specific subject. The subject of these paintings is simply less obvious. The subject is not the most important. When creating a painting, an abstract artist wants to convey specific feelings to future viewers, to encourage reflection on a specific problem. Often, the painter’s goal is to evoke certain associations. abstract expressionism assumes that each viewer will react slightly differently. What is supposed to be common is true art, a well-thought-out, message-rich artistic creation.
The question is whether true abstract expressionism has anything to distinguish it. At first glance, we notice that abstract paintings do not form a particularly uniform collection. It includes extremely simple, even minimalist, black-and-white drawings, expressionist canvases painted with gesture and very rigorously constructed paintings of abstract geometry. Abstract painting is a rejection of an unambiguous object. In contrast to representational painting, in which the main subject of the painting is easy to grasp. Meanwhile, abstract paintings are less obvious and defined. It may seem that abstract painting is more intuitive. A specific subject cannot be isolated in geometric abstraction, but if it has been painted in a thoughtful way, it arouses feelings in the viewer.
