FAQ About The Influence of Abstract Expressionism on Modern Art Practices

How did Abstract Expressionism impact modern art techniques?
Abstract Expressionism introduced innovative techniques that have had a lasting impact on modern art. Techniques such as action painting, famously used by Jackson Pollock, involved dripping or flinging paint onto a canvas, thereby emphasizing the physical act of painting itself. This approach has been emulated and adapted by subsequent generations of artists, who continue to explore the boundaries of art-making through innovative techniques and materials.
