Stephanie Strain's book is a fascinating introduction to the relatively short but eventful history of abstract art from the early 20th century to the present day. Originating in the 1900s among Symbolism, Cubism, and Expressionism, abstraction quickly became a global artistic phenomenon that changed the face of modernism and contemporary art. Sometimes frightening viewers with its incomprehensibility and connection to complex aesthetic theories, it opens new ways for many artists to comprehend the world around them. The author lifts the veil of mystery over the work of seventy-four abstractionists, from Hilma af Klint to Mark Rothko and from Wassily Kandinsky to Rana Begum, telling how they arrived at their style and developed it further. The reference section includes a chronicle of abstract art exhibitions, a list of additional references, a glossary of key terms, and an index.
