Concrete Art

Concrete Art is an abstract art movement that emerged in Europe in the 1930s, based on the idea that a work of art should be constructed entirely from pure visual elements such as line, color, and form. Rather than representing reality, concrete artists create compositions that exist solely as independent visual structures. Geometric order, clarity, and balance are central to the movement, often resulting in precise and systematic compositions. Artists associated with Concrete Art sought to eliminate symbolism and narrative, emphasizing instead the autonomy of the artwork and the direct experience of form and color.
