Color Fields lies somewhere between Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting with regards to style: And unquestionably these particular artistic movements were closely related. The palette of this eye catching three piece canvas art set is notable and uplifting. Shades of Blue, Red and Yellow come together to create new colors: Green, Orange and Turquoise.

Abstract Expressionism put New York on the map as one of the art centers of the western world: Although the term was first used in 1919 by the Berlin publication Der Sturm (the storm) which covered the development of the German Expressionist movement. The publication ran weekly from 1914 then monthly. Then in 1924 it became quarterly until 1932 when it finally ceased publication – Fourteen years later the term Abstract expressionism was used in America by art critic Robert Coates. However, the term was first used in America by Alfred Barr art historian and Director of New York’s Museum of Modern Art in 1929 in relation to the oil paintings of Kandinsky.

Abstract expressionist art works are non-figurative and emotionally intense: For example the work of Jackson Pollock. In addition, the Color Field paintings of Mark Rothko have also been described as Abstract Expressionist – Although hotly rebuffed by Rothko himself. The large flat areas of color in this three piece canvas art set reflect the Color Field Painting style which emerged from New York in the forties. It is a modern art work that will brighten up the room and provide a colorful focal point. Without doubt for those in search of colorful wall art that will enhance their environment Color Fields has to be a striking choice.
