When Abstract art was launched in the early part of the 20th century it revolutionized the art world. Many of the leading artists of the time chose this style as a rebellious departure from figurative art. They used the visual language of shape, form, color and line to create compositions with few or no references to the natural world. Rejecting the constraints of Realism, Abstract artists sought to explore the worlds of their imagination, freedom of expression, and follow their desire to unleash spontaneity through their chosen medium. Over the years many artists, theorists, historians and critics have expressed many different views of Abstract art. In this article you'll find art by several members of Manhattan Arts International who use Abstract art elements. You'll find their diverse statements and links to their pages so you can view more of their artwork. Please note, since this article was published in March, 2019, we have added more abstract artists to our online art gallery.
