What is Black and White Abstract Art?
Abstract art is typically defined by 3 distinct characteristics; strong focus on colours, shapes and line, highly subjective and existing outside of the classic, recognisable visual references we see in the world (i.e. flowers/humans/animals). Abstract art is often perceived as a highly emotive form of art; portraying complex concepts and imbued with emotions, its subjective nature creates a continuing story that changes depending on who is viewing the work. Abstract art can take many forms including painting, sketching, prints and sculptures. Creating black and white abstract arts presents a gritty, additional challenge to the artist, who cannot rely on human connections between colours to underpin their works. When executed properly, black and white abstract art can be some of the most moving and striking artwork for a home.
The Absence of Colour: The Presence of Meaning
So, how does the absence of colour impact the viewers experience of black and white abstract art? Shade and tone take centre stage and special attention is paid to the use of light and dark. Bold, brash strokes are as common in black and white abstract prints as softness and delicate hues of grey. Black and white command attention in a way that is entirely different to colour; they invite the viewer to stand back, take in more and contemplate the works’ hidden meanings. The genius works of Frank Pretorius are a masterclass in black and white artistry. Rich brush strokes and intense shadows break before streaks of lights with hints of form that separate Frank’s work from ‘true’
abstract. Nevertheless, his unique lens presents subjects in a new light that leaves viewers enchanted.
