Lyrical Abstraction

What is lyrical abstraction ?

Lyrical abstraction is a descriptive term characterizing a type of abstract painting closely related to Abstract Expressionism, in use from the 1940s to the present. The term can also describe two distinct but related trends in post-World War II modernist painting. This art movement originated in Paris, France, after the war, emphasizing personal expression, spontaneity, and the emotional use of color and form.

Eat Art

EAT (Experiments in Art and Technology) was a movement formed to foster collaborations between engineers and artists. It facilitated direct, person-to-person connections between these two groups. The movement was originally launched in 1967 by artists Robert Whitman and Robert Rauschenberg, along with engineers Fred Waldhauer and Billy Klüver. EAT carried out various projects and activities that expanded the role of artists in contemporary society, encouraging the integration of art and technology.

Browser art is a form of renegade art where artists use computers to transform code, website structures, and server links into visual material. These artists, often called net artists or net writers, manipulate computer code to create artworks that transform web pages into entirely different images or experiences.

Superflat

(141 works, 135 for sale)

Superflat is an art movement founded by Takashi Murakami, heavily influenced by anime and manga. The term Superflat refers to the flattened forms found in Japanese animation, graphic art, fine arts, and pop culture, as well as the perceived superficiality of Japanese culture. Murakami's movement, which he self-proclaimed, is considered postmodern and critiques both the depth and shallowness of contemporary Japanese society. Superflat has been highly influential in bridging the gap between high art and popular culture.
