内容简介

有一个内部独白，每件作品背后都有一个观众看不到的决定和可能性的世界。抽象是类似于学习一种新的语言。安娜-杨

抽象艺术没有单一的整齐的定义。它不试图表现现实；相反，它有自己的视觉语言，使用形状、颜色和形式，没有规则。澳大利亚抽象艺术是创意表达和姿态力量的爆发，它探索了不断发展的流派，以及它如何提供艺术自由，邀请艺术家和观众进行深入的个人联系和解释。作品经常跨越认识和感觉经验之间的中间点，通过绘画的物质性，包括各种风格的混合。

在广泛的采访基础上，Amber Creswell Bell研究了40多位当代抽象画家的不同做法，记录了各种风格、主题、愿景和哲学的曲目。有些人把抽象艺术比作音乐，特别是爵士乐；有些人的灵感来自于自然、科学和几何学；有些人只是喜欢用文字无法表达的方式来表达复杂的情感的机会。然而，将这些非凡的艺术家团结在一起的，是这种表达形式选择了他们的信念。

'There is an internal monologue, and a world of decisions and possibilities behind each work that the viewer does not see. Abstraction is akin to learning a new language.' ANA YOUNG

There is no single neat definition of abstract art. It makes no attempt to represent reality; instead it has its own visual language using shape, colour and form with no rules. An explosion of creative expression and gestural force, Australian Abstract explores the constantly evolving genre and how it offers unparalleled artistic freedom, inviting deeply personal connection and interpretation from both artist and viewer. Works often straddle a mid-point between recognition and the sensed experience through the materiality of paint encompassing a pastiche of styles.

Drawing on extensive interviews Amber Creswell Bell examines the diverse practices of more than forty contemporary abstract painters, documenting a repertoire of styles, subjects, visions and philosophies. Some compare abstract art to music, particularly jazz; others are inspired by nature, science and geometry; and some simply relish the opportunity to express complex emotions in a way words cannot. What unites these extraordinary artists, however, is the conviction that this form of expression chose them.
