Origins of Abstract Painting:

Abstract art originated in the early 20th century, around 1905-1915. It was the time when artists began moving away from the realistic representation towards colour, shapes and emotional expression. Wassily Kandinsky was one of the first artists to create purely abstract paintings around 1910. He believed that colour and form could evoke emotions just as music does, in 1915. Kazimir Malevich introduced Suprematism, and it focused on simple geometric shapes, such as squares and circles. Malevich’s iconic artwork, the Black Square, became a symbol of early abstract art. These movements helped abstract art expand across Europe and influence artists worldwide. 

History of Abstract Art  

 In the early 20th century, abstract art developed through several movements which shaped its direction from 1910 to 1930. Artists focused on geometric abstraction, creating structured compositions using lines, grids and primary colours. Piet Mondrian was a leading figure; he was known for his iconic grid-based paintings in 1940 to 1950s. 

 The centre of abstract art is now shifted to New York with the rise of abstract expressionist artists like Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko, who introduced large-scale skill, canvases, expressive techniques and colourful painting, which focused only on emotion and psychological depth after the 1960s and further expanded into movements and now further influences the modern and contemporary art world.
