Post-Painterly Abstraction
Post-painterly abstraction is a broad term that encompasses a variety of styles that
evolved in reaction to the painterly, gestural approaches of some Abstract
Expressionists.
Hard-Edge Painting
Painting in which abrupt transitions are found between color areas. Color areas are
often of one unvarying color. The Hard-edge painting style is related to Geometric
abstraction, Op Art, Post-painterly Abstraction, and Color Field painting.
Op Art
style of visual art that uses optical illusions. Op art works are abstract, with many better
known pieces created in black and white. Typically, they give the viewer the impression
of movement, hidden images, flashing and vibrating patterns, or of swelling or warping.
Kinetic Art
art from any medium that contains movement perceivable by the viewer or depends on
motion for its effect
Light and Space Art
loosely affiliated art movement related to op art, minimalism and geometric abstraction
originating in Southern California in the 1960s and influenced by John McLaughlin.
The International Style

characteristic materials of the construction.
Minimalism
a trend in sculpture and painting that arose in the 1950s and used simple, typically
massive, forms. Intimidating
Donald Judd on "Specific Objects"
neutral, discrete nature
box like objects
not painting or sculpture
Robert Morris on the gestalt, unitary objects, and scale
Unitary form is something you can see and understand all at once
Gestalt is something as a whole
Scale is important, large sized objects exhibit more specifically as an element
Michael Fried on art, objecthood, and theatricality
The viewer becomes an actor viewing the art on a stage, in time and space. The
experience is theatrical.
Theatre exists for one
When you experience a modernist work of art, it is all there for you. You lose yourself in
time.
"Presentness is grace"
Conceptual Art
art in which the concept(s) or idea(s) involved in the work take precedence over
traditional aesthetic and material concerns.
Performance Art
a performance presented to an audience within a fine art context, traditionally
interdisciplinary. Performance may be either scripted or unscripted, random or carefully
orchestrated; spontaneous or otherwise carefully planned with or without audience
participation.
Body Art
People using their body as sculpture
Politics and Postmodernism
People used their political views in their art, used art to promote them
