Defying visual references which exists around the world, Abstract art is an art style which has no form or figure. For many of us, black and white are not just colours, it is an embodiment of opposite forces and we more often tend to associate ourselves with these two colours. An absence of precise representation of imagery in art to convergence of two colours, black and white abstract paintings are a powerful medium, creating strong emotions and connections with its audiences.
Here is a collection of our favorite 10 abstract art paintings:
1. Energy/Emotional Transmutation 13 by S. Ravi Shankar
Artist Ravi Shankar lays his creative and non-referential abstract into canvas using acrylic and charcoal. This abstract black and white painting is a portrayal of human emotions and energy.
2. Attic Posture by Bhuwal Prasad
With an intention to create a set of beings that co-exist and in many ways intertwined in their existence, this piece of art is expressionist in nature. Bold strokes flowing in automatic rhythms, if seen from close quarters the paintings look completely abstract but seen from a distance, to the surprise of the viewers, figures and characters start evolving.
