This online viewing room showcases a selection of works by innovative historical and contemporary artists who have returned to and reinvented abstraction in order to speak to the present and future world we all inhabit. Despite the erroneous belief that abstraction had been carried to its limits, artists have revisited the language and taken it in new directions, ever pushing the boundaries of art in line with abstraction’s risk-taking legacy. The works in this viewing room are alternately spare, texturally dense, or vibrantly colored. All feature distinctive mark-making: abstraction constructed by pictorial means.
