Abstract

Abstraction is a feature of art in the twentieth century. The ideal 
of abstraction has become for the artist to be liberated from the 
subject so that art has its own language that is away from the 
realistic description of things and depends on the simplicity of 
shapes and colors. The artist was able to move from the space of 
imitation to the space of innovation and creativity. Modernity 
began with Expressionism where; The value of the light receded 
in front of the outpouring of color violence expressing the raging 
subjective feelings that rage with passions in a revolution against 
the inertia of the outside world. Among the most important 
pioneers of the abstract school are the Russian artist “Vassily 
Kandinsky" (1866-1944) and the Dutch artist “Pet Mondrian" 
(1972-1944). Spirituality is necessary in art for Kandinsky as it is 
necessary in life, so “Kandinsky" transcends his liberation to 
pure music forms. As for geometric abstraction and rigor, we see 
it in Mondrian's work.
