EMOTION FILLED CANVASES
Color field painting is a style of abstract art that emerged in the late 1950s and early 1960s as a part of the broader movement of abstract expressionism. It was primarily championed by artists like Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, and Clyfford Still.
In color field painting, the emphasis is on the use of large areas of solid color that cover most or all of the canvas, creating a sense of expansiveness and immersing the viewer in color. These fields of color are typically devoid of any recognizable imagery or figurative representation, which allows the viewer to focus solely on the color itself and its interaction with the surrounding space.
The artists sought to evoke emotional responses and contemplation through their use of color and composition. The large, flat fields of color can create a sense of serenity, contemplation, or even emotional intensity, depending on the artist's intent and the viewer's perception.
As you mentioned, strong formal elements such as color, shape, balance, depth, composition, and scale are crucial aspects of color field painting. The artists pay close attention to the relationships between colors, the arrangement of shapes, the distribution of hues across the canvas, and the overall visual harmony.
Color field painting is considered a significant development in the history of abstract art, and it has influenced subsequent generations of artists. Its focus on the purity and emotive power of color continues to resonate with artists and art enthusiasts today.
