Minimalist paintings – what is minimalism in art?
Minimalism, also called minimal art, is a trend in art from the 60s of the twentieth century. Its creators, fascinated by primitive forms of architecture and industrial production, sought to limit the means of art in their works. Its characteristic features are economical style, avoidance of decorativeness, limiting bright colors and anonymous atmosphere of the work.
Minimalism in painting was a response to abstract expressionism, which conveyed many intense emotions and ideas. Minimal art, on the other hand, was supposed to have a cold and distant message. Paintings in this style exude calm and arouse curiosity. They are often similar to modern paintings.
For which interior is it worth choosing a minimalist image?
A painting in the style of minimal art undoubtedly fits best into minimalist interiors. Economical illustration for the wall will blend perfectly with simple furniture and bright colors. In interiors in this style, it is in vain to look for additional ornaments, so a minimalist painting can be one interior decoration.
Not only minimalists are looking for paintings in an economical style. Paintings in this form can also fit perfectly into modern and loft interiors. Both styles assume a small amount of accessories, so minimalist paintings can look great there.
White background – a common element in minimalist paintings
When looking for a painting for a minimalist room, pay attention to such paintings that depict one object on a white background. Such an economical image will not overwhelm the interior, but it will perfectly complement it. Modern minimalism is not just about objects. In the paintings you can also find animals, plants, silhouettes of figures or portraits, as well as abstractions. Minimalist paintings are often created using the simplest geometric figures – circles, squares, triangles and focus primarily on elements such as object, line and color.
On canvas and glass – minimalist paintings at ARTTOR
In ARTTOR you will find various types of proposals for paintings for walls in a minimalist style. Our offer is very wide - among hundreds of proposals you will certainly find an image reflecting your character. You can choose from paintings on canvas and paintings on glass. Both forms are extremely refined by us. Paintings on canvas are printed using ecological, odorless inks. They are very durable and well pigmented. In addition, we cover them with a layer of satin laminate, which protects the image from UV radiation, as well as minor damage. Thanks to this layer, you can clean and wipe the image without fear – no streaks will remain on it. In turn, our glass images are created by combining high-quality printing and two protective layers with glass. We use vacuum lamination furnaces for this. We mill the edges of glass paintings so that they can be safely touched without the risk of injury.
