Geometric Abstraction
An art style that uses simple shapes like squares, circles, and triangles instead of real objects.
What is it?
Geometric abstraction is a way of making art where the artist uses basic geometric shapes, lines, and colors. There are no people, animals, or landscapes. Piet Mondrian's paintings are a famous example: he used only rectangles and straight lines. This style became popular in the early 1900s.
Why it matters
Geometric abstraction helped artists focus on the pure elements of art: shape, color, and line. It influenced modern design, architecture, and even logos.
