Abstract Expressionism: A Personal Artistic Revolution

American abract work has became more acceptable for some artists who all had something in common. It gave artist their own emotional them of how he or she feel. Most of the Abstract Expressinism matured in the early 1900s and it came to be more personal to them. By the 1940s most artist has left their styles behind and also learned much from their early work. It also encouraged them create something new that he or she has never done before. It also made it easier for them blend more colors and add more colors to their work to creat a new theme or colors all away around. Most European modernists began to come to New York in the 1930s and 40s to escape a upheaval and war. New York was a things for artists to become famous and show their artwork.

He or she wanted to go out there and explore what was out there and who would buy their paintings and how he or she can be known in a big city.

The artist I chose is Max Weber. He was the first few Americans to exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in 1930. Although, he nevered painted a great picture, but on the other hand, he created the Chinese Restaurant that was placed in the story of early abract art in America between 1915 and 1919. and his painting that I chose is

called the Interior with men. In the painting I see it looks like a bunch of pictures cluttered together to create different aspects of men faces. What I am thinking is when he created this painting is that he wanted to show there are different shapes and sizes of men.

However, you can actually see diffrent picture frames, like a bulding at the botton and at the top it looks like there is a door with windows. Max Weber choose to work on this style because he enjoy working on water colors and he want to let his audience to see what he has created. There are some paintings that he has created could be due to how he felt on his painting and so forth. What meaningful to Weber is that he goes from landscapes, to portraits, figures to a city view and lastly to complete abraction. However, there are barely any places that the eye can comfortably alight that his paintings are nothing but much clutter. The response that I have is his paintings are different and takes some time to think about of what the painting is about or what Max Weber is telling in his paintings. After looking at so many paintings that he had, I enjoyed looking at and there were a few that were kind of confusing and not quite exciting. What I have learned about Max Weber was that he was making a living out of himsef. However, he was being looked over

because of his paintings were not exciting and people were too confused about what the naked eye could see. But, when he started to explain more what his painting is all about, people started to notice what he saw and what questions and opinions each person had for that perticular art.In conclusion, Weber was a great artist. I have learned what some of his paintings were talking about and I would enjoy more of his paintings or like for him to create some more paintings that can be more understandable. He also created more animated images of musicians and other seated figures for example, the two dancers who might either were reciteing a ballet rehearsal or it could that both were on stage performing their recital. When Webster found the Cubism that suited him the best, it was based on exploding reality and more on carefully reassembling it. His paintings has also made it to the Brooklyn Museum.
