abstract artists
Non-figurative image makers
Abstract artists create visual art that doesn't attempt to represent recognizable reality—no landscapes, portraits, or objects from the physical world.
Instead they work with color, form, line, and texture as subjects in themselves.
The term covers painters like Kandinsky and Rothko, sculptors, and others who reject representational imagery in favor of pure visual expression.
