Abstract Art? How are abstract paintings defined as being 'abstract'? Whenever I paint something, people tell me it's abstract...so I'm just wondering...
What is the criteria for abstract art to be valuable? What do abstract art enthusiasts look for to decide what is good and what is crap, and can you make any money if you are alive, or do you have to be dead for your art to sell? I like making abstract art, so I want to know what is everyone in the abstract art world looking for?
Why was there so little fantasy or abstract art before the 20th Century? Hi, I was just wondering if someone could tell me why it took so long for Western artists to move away from trying to realistically depict the world, and to move onto more fantastic or abstract art such as we saw in the 20th Century. I realise there was a small degree of fantasy-like art before this, such as mythological depictions, and surreal works by painters like Heironymous Bosch, but I don't understand why there wasn't much more of this throughout the ages.
How do I understand abstract art? I have a fascination with abstract art, mostly because I don't understand it; I don't understand where it comes from, or how it becomes catalyzed. It's not just surreal paintings or sculpture, but also obscure music, photography, avant-garde ways of life, or eccentric people. It's paradoxical because the less I understand it, the more I enjoy it, but at the same time the fact that I don't understand it leaves my mind running wild with thought. Do I rely solely on interpretation? For example... how should I interpret abstract expressionism?

Where do hotels get their little pieces abstract art? My friend is really good (in my opinion) at painting abstract art but she doesn't know where to sell them. I saw some really crappy pieces at the palasio in las vegas a while ago and thought it would be a good idea to at least look into it.
How do you understand abstract art? Can someone explain how to "understand" abstract art? I really don't get it. It is a bunch of shapes. For example, Black Square by Kazimir Malevich is literally a black square. How can some art followers look at it and say things like, "It symbolizes man's struggle to find food in the wilderness." Maybe I'm just dumb, but I don't see it.

Any good arguments on abstract art? I need to write a 7 page argument paper about something about abstract art. The only thing I could come up with was on if a painting of a square or a circle, ect. was considered abstract art. I couldn't find much to talk about with that subject, let alone enough to cover a whole 7 page paper. So, I need help coming up with sided issues on abstract art. Does anybody have suggestions? It could even be about a specific abstract artist or something... Thanks!
is it cheesy that im in to vintage and abstract art? i have been an artistic unique person my whole life. i have always been into things other people consider weird. like collecting animal skulls (great for anatomy) old jewellry, things from the garbage. recently ive been getting into 60's vintage art deco type stuff. i have collected quite a few odd pieces and im proud of them all and love each one and the story behind it. nothing i own coordinates at all and i like it that way. is it cheesy to be into this type of collecting/art?
What are weaknesses of abstract art? Abstract art has become without emotional value or impact for me. A chimpanzee can do the same as some famous abstract painters which makes it totally without need of human intellectual elements or motives.
Want To See Why I Love And Do Abstract Art? As some of you might already know I can paint realistic and surrealistic paintings (and do so often enough) and portraits. But over the years I've heard the cliche many times over that artists paint abstract art because they don't have the real talent to do real art. That's not always the case, my friends. I work in abstract art also because it allows for a whole universe, a mental landscape, of expression that realism and neo-realism often enough does not allow. Want to see what I mean here? It frees the creative soul and, when it comes out right, it's fun! http://pics.livejournal.com/unmired/pic/0003w0fc/g16 (As always you can click on the image to enlarge it.) Why do you paint abstract art?
Do we see and understand abstract art as we are or as it is? What is true in abstract art that we all see? Or do we see abstract art as we are? How so? Do we understand abstract art in the same ways?

What am I missing about abstract art? I am often turned off by it because I don't see it taking any real skill and I usually don't buy into the explaination of it or the hidden meaning behind it or the inspiration for it. I often feel that it's the artist who can come up with the best story to explain it that makes the most money or gets the most attention. Am I wrong? If so, What makes a great abstract painting?
Does anyone know of any sites to sell abstract art online? I was wondering if anyone might know of any good and reasonable sites to sell art work online.

Ideas for an abstract art painting? I need to do an abstract art design for my art class by taking one-square-inch from a picture and painting it in monochromatic colors. I was thinking a waffle cone? Any other ideas would be great. Basically I am simplifying a small portion of a picture. The painting is going to be 18X18", and I'm having surgery on my good shoulder this monday, so the simpler the better. Thanks!

Why does the abstract art cross boundaries? The art with wings has brought many cultural images to the canvas. The art with eyes has brought the world into focus. There was no reason for the oriental images but they came to introduce the world inland.
Why does abstract art sell for as much as figurative art? This has always puzzled me. Why does abstract art sell for as much as, or more than, figurative art? Whenever I go into an art gallery or art auction I'm always blown away by the price tag put on the abstract art there. Much of the work is very simple, so much so that someone just starting out with art could have created it. As an illustrator I've had to spend literally thousands of hours practicing to get my skills where they are today. I find it disheartening to see abstract pieces selling for as much (or more) than pieces which obviously have years of effort and dedication behind them. I feel it cheapens the artist's efforts to consider their work as equal. Is that wrong? Why is abstract art not cheaper?
Where can i find abstract art? I'm looking for abstract paintings. I have a certain artist in mind, he paints pictures where he makes things look like other things, one example is a road that looks like it's a sheet. They don't have to be by this artist, but something along those lines, things that are interesting to look at and make you think. Anything you can give me is good, whether it's a website, a name of a painting, or a name of an artist. Thanks!

Do you buy posters of abstract art? If so why? Gotta be honest here! I'm trying to figure out why my fractal art posters and prints on red bubble and cafepress (Fine Fractals! is the shop name on cafepress ) arent selling and since the prices are reasonable is it lack of PR or just people not buying abstracts! Could folks tell me if they buy art posters of abstracts and if so what kinds and why? What attracts you to a poster? Bold hot colors? Strong patterns? Ambiguous imagery? Whatever?
