“Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes.” ―Arshile Gorky

Indian Abstract Paintings at Art Alive Gallery

Free flowing, borderless and unconventional, abstract art can largely be defined as art that does not represent an accurate characterization of visual reality but attempts to depict the same using a variety of visual cues such as colours, forms, shapes and gestures. The visual effect created by this kind of art is highly non-representational and in a certain way, distanced from the literal reality.

Today, abstraction has taken many forms in the art scene throughout the world. Abstract expressionism emerged as a trend in the Indian art circuits. Many established as well as young abstract artists came to the forefront as Indian abstract painting took shape through the years.
