Non-objective art does not contain a recognizable subject. Rather, the artist manipulates the elements of art (color, shape, line, form, space, value, texture) by using the principles of design (balance, repetition, unity, rhythm, proportion, harmony, variety, emphasis, movement). [Note: There are many different beliefs about which words make up the elements and principles of art and design.] The word "non-objective" can be broken down, literally, into the words "no object." When one looks at a non-objective piece of artwork, they will see various arrangements of lines, shapes, colors..etc. Sometimes these compositions make a pattern or design. Many people believe that non-objective art is not "real art," but non-objective artwork can be found in the rugs we buy for our homes, the prints on our clothing, and the covers of notebooks, folders, and CD's. Jackson Pollack and Piet Mondrion were two artists with non-objective styles.

What is nonobjective art and how should it be critiqued?

Nonobjective art, also known as non-representational art, focuses on color, form, and texture without depicting recognizable subjects or objects. When critiquing nonobjective art, it is essential to consider the emotional impact, use of materials, composition, and the artist's intent rather than looking for representational accuracy. Critics should explore how the work engages viewers on an aesthetic and conceptual level, encouraging personal interpretations and responses. This approach allows for a deeper understanding of the artist's exploration of abstraction and the viewer's subjective experience.

Why is it impossible to consider the literal qualities when examining nonobjective work?

Nonobjective art is intentionally created without reference to the real world, so trying to analyze it based on literal qualities like representation or realism would go against its very nature. Nonobjective art is meant to evoke emotions or ideas through abstract forms, colors, and composition, rather than through recognizable subjects or objects. Therefore, focusing on the literal qualities would not provide meaningful insights into the artist's intentions or the viewer's experience.

What are the differences and similarities among representational abstract and nonobjective art?

Representational art depicts recognizable subjects from the real world, while abstract art distorts or simplifies these subjects, focusing more on form, color, and composition than on literal representation. Nonobjective art, on the other hand, does not reference anything outside itself, relying solely on visual elements to convey meaning. The similarities among the three lie in their use of color, shape, and line to express emotions or ideas, but they differ fundamentally in their relationship to the external world and subject matter.

How does a nonobjective work of art become the least abstract form of art?

A truly abstract work of art is derived from an actual object or things in the real world, something found in nature that the artist has 'abstracted'. A non objective work of art has no ties to any real world objects or things and so it is not an abstraction of anything, it is aptly named, non objective.

What is the difference in nonobjective art and literal art?

Literal art would involve at least some form that is recognisable e.g. a bird. Non objective work is unrecognisable as anything other than itself e.g. a black square. The problem of course is that a black square may look like other black squares or as you may have imagined a black square to look or indeed the night sky. Hence is there really such a condition as non-objective for socialised humans?
