The problem becomes so absurd with all the movements and definitions of these movements that the dividing lines between them have become blurred. The difference between Abstract Art Paintings, Modern Abstract Paintings, Contemporary Modern Art, and Modern Art Paintings can’t be defined in simple terms of Cubism, Op-art, Pop Art, Post-Impressionism, Surrealism, Expressionism, Art Paintings Modern, Modern Oil Paintings, Modern Fine Art, Modern Canvas Art, Modern Canvas Paintings, Modern Canvas Art, Abstract Landscape Paintings, so on and so forth. Most often people who can’t paint want to define territory, movements, and periods. They then give you some impression that your new found knowledge will give you a clear understanding and admiration of that which will eventually lead you to the “Holy Grail”.
Modern Art Paintings is a great term for art that is created for now. With the majority of universities, art schools, art classes, professors, teachers and critics telling new art students that all other forms of art except abstract doesn’t count, the influence has become daunting. They have also pushed the “period” or ”ism” or “movement” aspect of artistic creation to a level that seems to become ridiculous. No matter if it takes on an abstract, cubism, surrealism or any other “ism”, modern is a better term for all of these. It is especially more pleasing than today’s term for the period we are presently in, the “Instant Art Movement”. This is a movement described as a time where art is art that only its creator would love.
Artists have always painted for themselves, but this of course has not been the “end all” and the “be all” for the artist. Artists have had other influences in creating paintings most of which comes from survival. They have used their creativity for patrons, for commissions, for exhibits, for shows, for statements, for beliefs and most of all others.
Paintings are the passion of the artist, the works of their hands and lives. Most artists have given themselves to painting because they have been endowed with a gift. They feel responsible for that gift and they feel satisfaction in exercising that gift.
Most are truly not interested in painting for some critic whose self serving words and deeds have only led to hurt, pain and the demise of many talented individuals, let alone a misleading of the public masses and the lovers of art.
Artists want to grow. They want to be led by their own work and their own self expression to challenge all that they know and all that they are. They want to produce work that moves them and thereby moves others. They want people to see, to experience, to hold, to have, to acquire and to be passionate about what they have created. They want to feel the satisfaction there is in knowing that someone selected their work because it hit them, struck them and captured them.
