Summary

Abstraction is considered as one of the significant formal articulations of modern art, and it is most closely associated with painting. The relentless analysis of the medium, breaking it down to its zero point, by the avant garde of the 1910s was followed by a recurrent burgeoning of nonrepresentational painting, particularly in Abstract Expressionism, Informalism, and Minimal Art. After modern abstraction of the 1960s was informed by skepticism of painting and the very idea of creative authorship; this was counterpointed with sensuality and intuition in the postmodern phase from the 1980s. Featuring some sixty different art positions, the catalogue will place the focus on the present-day international situation of the nonrepresentational easel painting, covering the full range of a still significant painterly practice.00Exhibition: Kunsthalle Krems, Germany (02.07.-.05.11.2017).
