A relative of mine, this piece sold for 300k at auction. I really need to get out to America and look at his collection.

Daniel Ridgway Knight.

Quality is shit because I can only find high quality above 4mb files, reverse image search to find them.

No. modernsim is a historical period like baroque or rococo. modern art is generally dated from about 1870's to high modernism towards the middle/end of the 1950's. everything produced post 1960 is considered contemporary.

Abstract Expressionism is contemporary.

It was pretty much the first movement that came out of the rupture from modernism.

how is it contemporary?

nice joke, user

Isn't Modernism just art still influenced by a search for meaning? Kind of a shitty way to put it but like it was about Idealism?

Abstract Expressionism being really influenced by Psychology seems right inline with that.

Not to argue, if you can explain the distinction that would be cool.

Of course

>Isn't Modernism just art still influenced by a search for meaning?
Not necessarily, but it's still possible. A more accurate definition of modernism is that it searches to represent the world and its abstract ideas (e.g.: 'movement' for the futurists, 'metaphysics' for the metaphysicists, etc.) in non-classical methods, that is how they are seen, felt or imagined, not how they actually are. And we must not forget their view of the supremacy of aesthetics over meaning.

>Kind of a shitty way to put it but like it was about Idealism?
You're totally right, modernism is essentially idealistic.

>Abstract Expressionism being really influenced by Psychology seems right inline with that.
Here's the difference: abstract expressionism is based, above all, in the rational. I see that, because of its view of logic being above all else, it inherently rejects aesthetics, something essential to the modernists.

Well, that's my pseud opinion, don't take it as fact.

And I would also like to add that because of abstract expressionism's nature, one can't simply compare it to another movement by mere sight like one could do with, let's say, neoclassism and romanticism. You must understand the intention, the logic of the artist though their writings. And that was their goal, this is one more thing that differentiates it with modernist movements. While modernism was highly theoretical, it did not abandon aesthetics for theory.

ab ex is very much modernism, not contemporary. contemporary can be traced from the duchamp revival and various forms of neo-dada, but ab ex is strict formalism and thus high modernism. it is separated from contemporary on account of post-modernism, as such it is why no one practices it anymore

modernism is basically the art influenced by the medium itself rather than any external factors. generally art historians will place cezanne as the galvanising factor for modernism but it has precedent in courbet and manet (realisme)

ab ex is modernism because yes it is influenced by psychology, which is also a key (the key) influence on surrealism. it also finds similarities to cubism (critics would call cubism one of the first steps to abstraction) and expressionism/fauvism which both deal with the frame and form of art as a factor in the construction of the work itself. it's pretty much a combination of all main streams of early modernism so it represents 'high modernism'

Modern art is garbage because it's all nihilistic and godless.

Post-modern SJW art is even worse. Anything can be considered art these days. I can take a photo of a pile of shit I took in the toilet and put it up for auction.

There's a performance artist who goes to city centers and has random strangers feel her titties and pussy in public. Check it out she's on pornhub.

There's also matress girls sex tape which was her final art piece for uiniversity. And theres that duo that deliberately gave themselves HIV to make an artist statement.

The one I hate though are those who's performance art is to vandalize other people's art in museum, Some of them being paintings hundreds of years old.

'post-modern' isn't really 'these days'

and yes anything can be considered art but not all things are. a photo of a pile of shit isn't very relevant artistically

beautiful

Yeah it's such a shame the Soviet's forced social realism, the abstract stuff was far superior.

> I can take a photo of a pile of shit I took in the toilet and put it up for auction.
As if, you are like the cucks who believe that they can just copy WoW to have billion of subscribers. They are just envy the success of other creatores and lack understanding of view they sucees. So in they delusions they just can copu what is already done and become some sort of geniuses. Top kek.

I like that, pretty deep work.

I really like Rothko

YEEESSSSS!

Mondrian always does it for me.

Not my favorite Rothko but the way he can paint feelings of utter despair and dread is just amazing. He's like one of the few contemporary painters that I really enjoy

I find Charles Sims fairly interesting.

>Sims was an accomplished and successful academic painter in oil, tempera and watercolour, of figure subjects, genre scenes and landscapes. He studied in London and Paris and exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1894. He won Gold Medals at the Amsterdam and Pittsburgh International Exhibitions in 1912, was elected RWS in 1914 and RA in 1916. He was an official war artist in 1918 and Keeper of the Royal Academy Schools from 1920-26. In the early 1920's Sims began to show signs of mental illness, possibly schizophrenia and his pictures became more improvisatory in execution and revelatory in content.

>His new mystical paintings were shunned by those who had once feted and revered him. Increasingly depressed, he went out at dawn on 13 April 1928 and shot himself at his home in St. Boswells, Scotland.
