Abstract art, also known as modern art, is all about expression and interpretation. It is not a type of art form that people are very ambivalent about – it’s either they love it or they hate it. Oil painting reproduction is one great way to own a colorful, expressive, and original abstract art.

It’s not easy to give a definition of abstract art but certainly not impossible. Modern art is capable of delivering a wide range of emotions, allowing one to interpret the different shapes and colors. If we were to give three examples of abstract or modern art, then we would have to mention the following: Cubism, Neoplasticism and Abstract Expressionism. Read through and take a look at the interesting origins of this art form so that you can understand how it all started.

Cubism was an ultra-modern movement pioneered by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso around 1907. Real objects and subjects were disassembled and reassembled from several different angles, into an abstracted form. The dissection of the subject and putting the dissected parts together is one of the most notable characteristics of Cubism. The end result or the output with different edges makes this art form really abstract.

Neoplasticism, another abstract form, was a Dutch movement in 1910. This art form was based on the principle that art should not be a reproduction of a real object, but the expression and impression of the completeness of life. This modern art form followed the premise that an artist should be able to create using only colors and lines instead of realistic subjects. It simplified subjects to horizontal and vertical directions and utilized only primary colors, along with white and black.

Abstract Expressionism appeared at the end of World War II, being presented as an American art movement. With this form of modern art, the artist rapidly applies paint to a large canvas, either by using a brush or by throwing the paint at the large canvas. What appeared totally random or an accident was actually very well planned. This form of modern art is depicted by a core belief in the freedom of expression and a spirit of revolt.

Another form of modern art is Conceptual Art. Essentially, this type of art is just a concept where an artist takes a certain idea and creates an artwork based on his concept or interpretation, rather than going through the traditional way an artwork is usually done. Artists practicing Conceptual Art establish their concept or idea as the focal point, instead of an object they were trying to depict.

Today, artists continuously create uniquely beautiful works of abstract art. This art does not always appeal or seem interesting to all art lovers. While some require the real objects to be portrayed in virtually photographic details to enjoy it, there are also some who completely enjoy the spontaneous, impulsive, and emotional expression revealed in abstract art.

An oil painting reproduction is one great way to own beautiful and affordable abstract art. An oil painting reproduction is essentially a recreation of a work of art by a new artist. The beauty of these oil paintings come from being hand painted, by reputed artists, using oil-based paints.

Upon learning of the initiative taken by the Kirklands, and their need, Joe Schmidt and Tom Lotrecchiano were excited to be a part of their efforts.
