Detailed Description
Abstract art is a form of art in which an artist expresses his or her ideas and emotions rather than portraying a realistic image. Abstract art can be in any form, including painting, sculpture, printmaking, and even photography. Some well-known abstract artists include Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandinsky, and Jackson Pollock. One of the most famous abstract paintings is “Guernica” by Picasso. This painting was created in response to the bombing of the Spanish town of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. Abstract art is often seen as controversial because it does not conform to traditional ideas about what art should look like. Some people believe that abstract art is not really art at all. However, others find it to be the most interesting and exciting form of art.
