Discussing on how the paint was applied loose, free and in an instinctive manner that emphasized the physical gesture, act of painting. Paintings are usually non-representational. Briefly, we learned about different artists and their technics and different ways of expressing their paintings. Such as De Kooning creating series of women looking like monsters showed the realistic representational art to abstract surrealism. There’s also Franz Klain who’s brush would hit the canvas different ways in no telling how or where he started. Jackson Pollock would drip pain a certain way and wouldn’t stroke a brush, instead he would use the wooden tip of the brush to paint. Those were examples of some artists in which shared the same movement with Ad Reinhardt, demonstrating how all had a different style interpreting their art on a canvas. Ad Reinhardt would just limit his color to Red, Blue, Green and Black, he would do a cross from the top to bottom and then across. Intending to leave no trace of his brush strokes. Keeping art and business apart, Reinhardt work was made to communicate with like minded people even if it meant for the viewer to stand in front of a painting longer than many. As Abstract Expressionist, making paintings you can’t just walk quickly by; they were the last movement where artists took seriously
