Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Contemporary painting

From prehistoric times to today, painting remains an inexhaustible source of inspiration for artists around the world. In addition to representing a field of contemporary art, it constitutes a means of expression with multiple forms. Indeed, the brushstrokes illustrated on a painting hide a concept or a subject. Whatever the theme you are looking for, ARTactif presents a wide range of contemporary paintings.

Contemporary art, contemporary painting: what is it about?

According to chronology, contemporary art follows modern art which was initiated between 1850 and 1945 by the impressionist movement. Contemporary art is therefore any artistic movement born after the Second World War. Pop art, graffiti art, Fluxus, Street art and digital art are examples.

Description
The watercolor painting "Riders Rest on a Stormy Night" captures the dramatic landscape of a group of riders on a stormy winter night. The colors of the painting, predominantly gray-blue and white, emphasize the cold and merciless character of nature. The sky is ominous and restless, with dark clouds driven by a strong wind. The riders, wrapped in heavy coats and hats, lean against the whipping wind blowing across the painting from the right. Their clothing billows wildly as they try to find shelter and warmth in the inhospitable night. The wind seems to permeate everything as the riders brave the storm, heads bowed and hugging their horses. The dynamic brushstrokes and delicate watercolor technique enhance the sense of movement and drama that permeates the scene, conveying the harsh and relentless mood of this stormy winter night.
