What are the characteristics of ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM?
Like in the past, artists continued using real-life as subject matter, with vivid colours, often with thick paint. However, they added other ideas. Using geometric forms, distorting forms for effect, and using unnatural colours are some of their ways.
The most prominent feature of the movement was its experimentation with the expressive function of colour. Like the impressionist artists who preceded them, they painted subjects from the natural landscape—but the vibrant colours used in their paintings gave the subject matter a sense of the unnatural.
This style presents the world as subjective: how the artist feels it, not how it is scientifically. The art looks to get an emotional effect and transmits personal moods and ideas. The artists sought to express the meaning of "being alive" and emotional experience rather than physical reality.
In this style of art the artist aims to show all of the possible viewpoints of a person or an object all at once. In the beginning, it was monochrome (only one colour) so the person who was looking at the painting did not pay attention to colour, but only to the shapes and the forms that were being shown.
Characteristics vary depending on the group. There are the so-called action painters, who attacked their canvases with expressive brush strokes; and the colour field painters who filled their canvases with large areas of a single colour.
