  1. ABSTRACT ART, CUBISM ANDEXPRESSIONISM • Expressive art • Radical for that time • Post war 1930’s • The movement was one ideal for painter • Canvases with fields of colour and abstract forms • Interest in the unconscious • Expressive art of profound emotion and universal themes • Shaped by the legacy of Surrealism

  2. What Are the Key Characteristics of Abstract Expressionism? • Unconventional application of paint, usually without a recognizable subject (de Kooning'sWoman series is an exception) that tends toward amorphous shapes in brilliant colors. • Dripping, smearing, slathering, and flinging lots of paint on to the canvas (often an unprimed canvas). • Sometimes gestural "writing" in a loosely calligraphic manner. • In the case of Color Field artists: carefully filling the picture plane with zones of color that create tension between the shapes and hues.
