Art of the 1950's
This piece is by Jackson Pollack. He was a known worldwide for his physical type of painting. His original style meant that he would get on the floor and dribble paint on his canvas. Any time someone paints with their canvas on the floor, you know that they got the idea from Jackson Pollack.
This piece is by Antonio Tapies. He had his own special style of Abstract Expressionism. He expressed his inner feelings on his canvas. He has influenced the artists of today by leading them to speak their emotions not with their mouth, but with their paint and brush
This painting was done by Hans Hoffman. He has inspired many artists around the world with his abstract expressionism art. All of his artwork displays a theme that is unique and powerful. His famous push pull theory describes the plasticity of 3-d art that is changed to 2-D
Abstract Expressionism is a type of art in which the artist expresses himself purely through the use of form and color. It is non-objective art, which means that there are no actual objects represented. The first artists that used this style were Jackson Pollack, Hans Hoffman, and Antonio Tapies. They were part of what was called the New York School
