Detailed Description

In the late 1960s, a new art movement began to emerge in New York City. This movement was called minimalism, and it was characterized by simple, geometric shapes and muted colors. Minimalist artists sought to strip away all unnecessary elements from their work, leaving only the essential forms and colors. Some of the most famous minimalist artists include Frank Stella, Donald Judd, and Dan Flavin. Stella’s famous painting “Black Paintings” is a good example of minimalism. Judd’s “Untitled” is another well-known minimalist work. Minimalism has had a major influence on subsequent art movements, such as post-minimalism and conceptual art. It has also been a major force in the world of architecture and design. The clean, simple lines of minimalism are now seen in everything from office buildings to furniture.
