Understanding Abstract Art East Coast

By Thomas Johnson


Abstract art has always been a mystery to people no matter where they go. It is quite common to see a lot of paintings that just have random shapes and colors smashed together to form something that does not seem to convey any message, or so it seems. For those who want to get a better understanding of abstract art east coast, it is important to always look from an analytical perspective.

Now, one thing to remember about these kinds of artwork is that it does not have any direct representation. Most artworks are usually a representation of something. For example, a painting of a river is literally a painting that an artist did of an actual river that the painter was looking at and wanted to paint.

With this, it is often said that the sign of a true artist is how well he or she represents his or her inspiration. Most people would see this as how well he or she makes his or her artwork closest to how the inspiration really looks like. Though this is the popular thinking, a lot of artists still try to go for abstraction when they work.

Now, contrary to what most people think, abstraction in artworks does have its own meaning to it. In order to understand the weird mixture of colors and shapes, it is very important to first understand the history of the creator as well as the time period that he or she lived in. To understand an artwork is to look at it through the eyes of the creator.

When trying to understand this type of art, one must always think about two things, namely the mood and the emotion. The mood would pertain the mood of the artist during the creation. The emotion, on the other hand, would refer to the emotions that inspired the reason for the creation of his or her artwork. Both will determine what was on the mind of the creator when he or she made the piece.

Emotion, on the other hand, would refer to the emotions that caused the creation in the first place. This would refer to what the artist was feeling to make him or her create the artwork in the first place. It could be because the artist was feeling sadness over the loss of a loved one, fear because he or she was in a time of war and so forth. Knowing these emotions will help one understand what exactly the artwork is about.

The last thing to consider would be the own personal feelings and emotions of the one admiring the piece of work. Art is not so much about analysis but rather more about feeling. It loses its purpose if the one watching it only considers the historical and analytical aspect of the work without considering his or her own perceptions and feelings about it.

Always remember that the purpose of a piece of artwork is to nourish the soul. By taking into consideration these three things, it will aid in better understanding not only the artwork but also oneself. The beautiful thing about abstract art is that it does not just look at the world from a one sided point of view but from a very broad perspective which is why it is possible to learn so much from it.
