Exploring Geometric Acrylic Abstract Art

What is Geometric Acrylic Abstract Art

Geometric abstract art is a type of expression that centers around utilizing shapes such, as squares, rectangles, circles, triangles and lines as the visual elements.

Artists in this genre simplify human made structures into forms. These shapes are arranged in a non-representational manner

Exploring Geometric Abstraction With Acrylics – Special Guest Artist Joe DiGiulio Details:

What goes in to painting an abstract work? We have all heard someone say at a museum, while pointing at an abstract work

“What the HECK??? My kid could do THAT.”

Yet, as artists, we simply know that isn’t the case. So what are the thought processes, and where do you get started?

Join us with our special guest, professional abstract artist and instructor Joe DiGiulio, as he guides us on a simultaneous introduction and exploration of geometric abstraction, using acrylic paints, canvas, and pigmented markers on paper.

Key characteristics of geometric abstract painting

Geometric shapes: Geometric abstract painters use precise, regular, and often symmetrical shapes as building blocks for their compositions. These shapes may be arranged in repeating patterns, grids, or overlapping configurations to create visually dynamic and harmonious compositions.

Hard edges and clean lines: Geometric abstract paintings typically feature sharp, defined edges and crisp lines, emphasizing the precision and clarity of the geometric forms. Artists may use techniques such as masking, taping, or precision brushwork to achieve clean edges and precise geometric shapes

Minimalist aesthetic: Geometric abstraction frequently adopts a style emphasizing simplicity, clarity and organization, in its artistry. Artists aim to achieve coherence and harmony by removing intricacies and concentrating on the fundamental aspects of shape, color and space.

Non-representational imagery: Geometric abstraction unlike art that portrays subjects or scenes does not seek to represent particular objects or figures. Instead it concentrates on shapes and compositions to inspire experiences, emotions or concepts detached from external reality.

Freedom of interpretation: Abstract art beckons individuals to. Connect with the artwork, on an subjective level. By freeing itself from the confines of imagery abstract art motivates viewers to delve into their connections, feelings and understandings in reaction, to the artwork.

Geometric abstract painting remains a vibrant and influential genre within contemporary art, with artists exploring new techniques, materials, and concepts to push the boundaries of geometric abstraction.
