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, done in shades of gray, shows two women looking together with great curiosity at something outside the picture. The woman in the foreground is in focus, her hand rapturously raised to her mouth as she looks intensely and interestedly to the right. Her expression betrays fascination, almost as if she is captivated by what she sees. Behind her stands a second woman, slightly set back, who is also looking curiously at what is happening. Her posture is somewhat less dramatic, but the same expression of tense interest is reflected in her features. Both women appear elegant and graceful, with their gestures and glances carrying the central emotion of the picture.The gray tones of the watercolor lend the scene a certain restraint and elegance, with the soft shading reinforcing the gentle dynamic between the two women and their mysterious fascination.
