Description
When most people hear of the Abstract Expressionist movement, the first thought is of Jackson Pollock and his drip paintings. While he was probably the biggest name in the movement, the style was extremely varied and consisted of more than just drips and splatters. Willem de Kooning made figurative works, Rothko and Frankenthaler created color fields, but what tied all of these works together was an emphasis on the expressive qualities of art. The abstract expressionist or ab ex movement was all about the artist making their feelings visible to the outside world. It was spontaneous and highly idiosyncratic with all different artists finding their unique mark making for personal self expression.
