Abstract Expressionism was borne from an extraordinary time. People were recovering from the aftermath of two world wars, which made expression and freedom through art all the more vital. Young artists were anxious and wanting to express themselves through new art brimming with meaning and substance. You can read more about the history of Abstract Expressionism on the blog here.

This week, we're celebrating the birthday of one of the most famous of the movement — colour field painter, Mark Rothko — and inspired pieces on Artfinder. Discover our specially curated collection and get those creative juices flowing!
