Abstract Art

Picasso.com presents you with a nice assortment of abstract paintings, including a handful that were created in the second half of the 19th century. This is when the artistic movement gained a contour and even though some of the painters were frowned upon, the best creations endured. James McNeill Whistler was one of the first painters to focus mostly on the visual sensation rather than emphasizing the object and his approach inspired others to paint abstract wall art.

Modern artists took abstract prints to an entirely different level and their creations cover a broad spectrum of colors and shapes. Those who prefer abstract paintings that don’t stray too far from the canon and revolve around objects that exist in real life while focusing on the mood and feelings, will have a couple of prints to choose from. There is of course the possibility of going to extremes and pursue the “everything goes” attitude that is specific to 21st century artwork.
