I thought the same about abstract art until I saw that one painting in the movie Ex Machina. For some reason in that context it just evoked feelings of dread more than almost any other scene in the movie. And it’s an almost static shot just staring at this one abstract painting. It was really interesting and totally changed my mind on abstract art.
I love abstract art. I hope this isn’t giving people a wrong impression. There should be something that makes me go “oh that’s a cool idea” or an aesthetically pleasing composition.
Edit: He didn’t even use complementary colors. It’s just random splatters.
I like this digital art by borrachas1 for example:
I feel the same way about Nude Descending a Staircase. Normally cubism or turn of the century modern art doesn’t do it for me, but for some reason I can just…stare at that painting. It’s oddly fascinating in a way I can’t fully describe. I want to get a print of it for my house.
