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 "Elegance in Motion" shows an Arabian thoroughbred horse in full gallop, with its grace and power in the foreground. The horse is captured in a dynamic moment, with its mane flowing and its legs stretching out as it glides through the room at full speed. The color scheme of the painting is subtle and focuses on an interplay of white, gray and shades of black. These reduced colors emphasize the purity and grace of the horse, while soft shades bring depth and structure to the painting. The background is subtly indicated, in soft gray tones, with the focus entirely on the horse's movement and its powerful elegance. The impression of the painting is light and dynamic, fast as if the horse were floating through the air, carried by the wind. The reduced color palette reinforces the simplicity and beauty.
