Abstract Expressionism OP art Conceptual Art and Contemporary Arts

 

Contemporary Art Forms:

 Contemporary art is the art of today, produced in the second half of the 20th century. 

Throughout history, people have used art to communicate without relying on words. 

Art can express political ideas, reinforce religion, or convey deeply personal thoughts. 

Art communicates in different ways, including through symbols or allegory, in which a figure stands for an abstract idea. 

Contemporary artists work in a globally influenced, culturally diversity, and technologically advancing world. 

Their art is a dynamic combination of materials, methods, concepts, and subjects that continue the challenging of boundaries that was already well underway in the 20th century. 

 The elements and principles of art such as line, shape, color and texture are the visual building blocks of art and design used by artist to express ideas or emotions in art. 

 Modern artists learn how to work with these elements by applying principles such as balance, repetition, harmony, and symmetry. 

Artists use different media for creating art. 

 Some continue to use traditional media like paint, clay, or bronze, but other have selected new or unusual materials for their art, such industrial or recycled materials and newer technologies like photography, video or digital media offer artist even more ways to express themselves. 

The modern artist incorporates more than materials and techniques in ways that create hybrid art forms. 

A combination of still images, moving images, sound, digital media, and found objects can create new art forms that are beyond what traditional artists have ever imagined. 

 In their efforts to create meaning in today’s world, modern artists frequently go beyond these elements and principles in their work. 

They use new concepts and approaches and some of these are installation and performance art.

 Installation Art Installation art is a contemporary art form that uses sculptural materials and other media to modify the way the viewer experiences a particular space. 

Usually, life-size or sometimes even larger, installation art is not necessarily confined to gallery spaces. It can be constructed or positioned in very public or private spaces, both indoor and outdoor.
