What Even is Abstract Art?

Skip ahead to the art please!

According to Tate Modern, Abstract art can be defined as:

“Art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect.”

– Tate Modern, London

Often used interchangeably with Abstract Art are the terms non-figurative art, non-objective art, and non-representational art, all hinting towards a rejection of portraying subjects in a way that reflects the real world as we view it.

This is a massively broad category of fine art, and there are many subcategories and genres. Rather than exhausting readers with descriptions of these genres and their context in the world of art (countless art historians have done this far better than we could ever hope to), we recommend for collectors to experience a variety of styles visually, independent of their categorization, and discover what appeals to them.

Once viscerally familiar with the movements and genres which appeal to you, diving into the intellectual details (context, history, and masters of the movement) becomes even more compelling.
