Beyond the Canvas: Examining the Interplay Between Color, Form, and Emotion in Abstract Expressionism

Abstract

Abstract Expressionism, a revolutionary art movement that emerged in the mid-20th century, shattered the traditional boundaries of painting and redefined the relationship between artist, canvas, and viewer. This article delves into the heart of this movement, exploring the dynamic interplay between color, form, and emotion in the works of key Abstract Expressionist artists. Through a close examination of their techniques, choices, and intentions, we will uncover the profound ways in which these artists used color and form to evoke powerful emotional responses in their viewers.
