URBAN EXPRESSIONISM
A simplistic yet profound artistic style, and movement, in Art which speaks with the deliberate position of using art as a communicative tool. It is an art-form in which art and communication could reasonably merge and become one flesh; through the use of flowing brushstrokes, markings, words, text, signs, and symbols
Did you see that painting in the other gallery? It had that way cool and urban flow style with the words and symbols in it? It looks simple but it makes you think Is it Jean-Micheli Basquiat? Not, it is URBAN EXPRESSIONISM
modern urban-expressionism
a style of art founded in 1997 that is rooted in the old 1900 expressionism movement in germany and influenced by movements in New York City such as abstract expressionism and graffiti art. This style of art is known to be a rebellious response to the rising political and social changes in the world.
