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 shows a man walking his horse step by step along a lonely path. The surroundings are painted in shades of gray, creating a melancholic, almost timeless atmosphere. The man and the horse seem to be in a silent dialogue with each other, their movements calm and deliberate. The shades of gray dominate the picture, from light, almost misty areas to deep, dark shadows. This tonality reinforces the feeling of loneliness and silence. The landscape is only suggested, without clear details, which gives the picture a dreamy quality. It seems as if the man is walking on a path to an unknown future, while the horse remains faithfully by his side, both in complete harmony with the quiet, gray world around them.
