EXPRESSIONISM
• Abstract expressionism is the term applied to new
forms of abstract art developed by American painters
such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Willem de
Kooning in the 1940s and 1950s. It is often
characterized by gestural brush-strokes or mark-
making, and the impression of spontaneity.
ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM
• The abstract expressionists were mostly based in
New York City, and also became known as the
“New York School”.
Type of Abstract Expressionism
•Action Painting
•Color Field Painting
•Pictograph Approach
Action Painting
Jackson Pollock Autumn Rhythm
ACTION PAINTING
•The process in action painting involves;
splattering, squirting, and dribbling paint
with (seemingly) no pre-planned pattern or
design in mind. The total effect is one of
vitality, creativity, “energy made visible.”
Color Field Painting
Mark Rothko Magenta, Black,
Green on Orange
COLOR FIELD PAINTING
•Another group of artists who came to be
known as “color field painters” used
different color saturations (purity,
intensity) to create their desired effects.
PICTOGRAPH APPROACH
Adolph Gottlieb Forgotten Dream
PICTOGRAPH APPROACH
•It is more intimate approach in art where
artists fill the canvas with repeating
picture fragments or symbols—as in the
works of Adolph Gottlieb and Lee
Krasner.
Movement after “New York School”
Pop Art
Pop Art was a style of
modern art in the 1960's
that used the imagery of
mass-media, mass-
production and mass-
culture.
Pop Art
• Like the Dadaist movement that arose after World War I,
the pop art movement of the 1960s wanted to make
reforms in the traditional values. But unlike the angry,
serious tone of the original Dadaists, the pop artists
seemed to enjoy nonsense for its own sake and simply
wanted to laugh at the world.

Bridget, 1963
Op-Art
•a form of “action painting” with the action
taking place in the viewer’s eye. In op
art, lines, spaces and colors were
precisely planned and positioned to give
the illusion of movement.
Conceptual Art
•art for which the idea (or concept)
behind the work is more important than
the finished art object.
