Description
Abstract art today may be global in its reach, yet it retains a universal quality that transcends borders. Robert Linsley explores this paradox in his book, Beyond Resemblance, arguing that conceptualism is a pervasive force in contemporary art. Linsley examines the relationship between abstraction and meaning, highlighting how artists deliberately avoid moralizing or overt explanation to create a space for interpretation. He delves into the work of both lesser-known and more established artists, showcasing their contributions to the genre. Through his analysis, Linsley demonstrates the enduring value of abstract art as a means of finding perspective in chaotic times. Richly illustrated, Beyond Resemblance offers a nuanced understanding of this complex and multifaceted art movement.
