What is acrylic on canvas?

Acrylic on canvas is a technique where acrylic paint is applied to a canvas surface using tools like brushes and palette knives. Acrylic paint is a synthetic medium made from liquid plastic, which can be thinned with water and dries quickly when exposed to air. This fast-drying quality makes it versatile for layering and various painting techniques.

Neo-Geo

Known as Neo-Geo for short, this movement uses geometric objects and shapes to create abstract artwork as a metaphor for society. Inspired by various 20th-century art styles, including minimalism and pop art, Neo-Geo emerged in the 1980s as a response to the industrialization and commercialization of the modern world. The movement reflects on the impact of mass production, consumerism, and technology, often critiquing the superficiality of contemporary culture through its abstract, geometric compositions.

Art Intervention

Art Intervention refers to art created with the intention of interacting with an existing situation, structure, artwork, audience, or institution. This form of art gained popularity in the 1960s as artists sought to provoke change within political and social contexts. The concept of Artist-in-Residence programs was influenced by the ideas and practices of this movement.

Space Art

Space Art is an artistic genre that depicts the cosmic elements of the universe, including celestial bodies, interstellar space, and space exploration. It began in 1865 with the first science-based illustrations by A. de Neuville and Emile Bayard in Jules Verne’s novel From the Earth to the Moon. Space Art has since evolved to include various forms of visual art inspired by astronomical discoveries and the human imagination, playing a key role in visualizing the wonders of space.
