Abstract art work surrounds us everyday. Perhaps you've seen pictures of artworks of famous artists in an art book you have at home.
Maybe you have even seen some of them in your local gallery, or in photographs posted on Internet sites focused on abstract artworks.
There are many examples of abstract art styles and artists but perhaps the most recognized American abstract expressionist painters are Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko, known for Action Painting and Color Field Painting, respectively.
The artworks of Pollock and Rothko are pretty much devoid of recognizable objects in any of their art making their paintings true representatives of abstract art.
However, you need not see a Pollock or Rothko painting to experience abstract art. Since this type of art focuses on the artist's self expression of things around him, even graffiti is known to be an example of abstract art.
So be it your local gallery, an online museum or simply down at the subway, abstract art is everywhere for you to see.
Aside from the aforementioned artists and styles, many other abstract artists and works are still out there. Each of these abstract art paintings are simply waiting to be experienced by a viewer.
Maybe you can start viewing them today at the various galleries, or search for them on the Internet. I'm sure it will be worth your time.
