Abstract

The works of art of the twentieth century marked a new turning point in the history of art, and the abstract trend in these works may have been a major factor in this turning point.

Abstraction was a strong presence in the contemporary art scene, raising many questions about its propositions and visual formulas. These propositions and formulas necessitated systematic study to reveal the justifications (abstraction) and the place reached by the paradox (customary) or realistic, so how can an artistic direction be welcomed and rejected at the same time, and on what the supporters of each party were based.

What paths did human thought take before arriving at the station of abstraction in art, and what were the nature of the ideas promoted by abstract art theorists?

Abstract diversities were observed according to what is visual formative, musical auditory, architectural constructivism, or expressive performance, the study of which required the analysis of samples of works of art (abstract) in a scientific, descriptive style, based (case study) in analysis and comparison related to the introductions of creative creation (concept), and the image of this creation in terms of structure and visual formulation (application) and the extent of their acceptance, reaching  conclusions confirming the (internal intellectual content) in the work of art according to the conditions of formation and technology and their astonishing visuals away from the burden of the subject, which is considered in the state of his studies (talk outside the artwork).
