Abstract Motion

The captivating beauty of abstract art lies in its dynamic expressiveness, which transcends the traditional principles of visual representation and evokes in its viewer unique emotions and sensations through shape, color and lines. The artist invites our gaze to roam over the canvas, dancing from one area of visual intrigue to the next. Whether our attention fixes on a bold use of brush stroke, a swirling line, or a vibrant hue, abstract art can generate a sense of rhythm on the canvas which transports us to a world beyond the four walls around us. 

The representation of motion and dynamism has long transfixed the world of contemporary art. From the splattered painted masterpieces of Jackson Pollock to the poetic locomotive performance works by Rebecca Horn, the world of contemporary art has brought to light and continues to honor the beauty of movement in and of itself.
