LO1: Understand how ideas and concepts inform art and design work

SUPREMATISM

Suprematism is precise, straight lines, perfect curves and circles. The colours used in Suprematism and Neo-expressionism  are near similarity but Neo-expressionism uses bright colours. Neo-expressionism is very scribbly, chaotic and confusing its not as precise as Suprematism which is a lot more relaxed and calm with its perfect  lines and curves. 

They are similar through their colours but different through their lines, shape and space. The brush strokes in Neo-expressionism is rough, quick and abstract where as Suprematism is soft and looks very flat, but it is also abstract.

NEO-EXPRESSIONISM

Explanation of Neo-expressionism

Neo-expressionism is a style of modern painting and sculpture that emerged in the late 1970s and dominated the art market until the mid-1980s. Related to American Lyrical Abstraction of the 60s and 70s, Bay Area Figurative School of the 50s and 60s, the continuation of Abstract Expressionism, New Image Painting and precedents in Pop painting, it developed as a reaction against the conceptual art and minimal art of the 1970s. Neo-expressionists returned to portraying recognizable objects, such as the human body (although sometimes in an abstract manner), in a rough and violently emotional way using vivid colours and banal colour harmonies

Explanation of Suprematism

Suprematism was an art movement, focused on basic geometric forms, such as circles, squares, lines, and rectangles, painted in a limited range of colours. It was founded by Kazimir Malevich in Russia, in 1915. The term suprematism refers to an art based upon “the supremacy of pure artistic feeling” rather than on visual depiction of objects

Conceptual drawings

Firstly we chose two artists or art movements and then researched my chosen art movements. I chose Neo-expressionism and Suprematism.  

Secondly I completed six credit card concepts. I combined the two art movements together to create a piece. I then created weapons, landscapes, vehicles, characters and another landscape because I felt that this was the route I wanted to take. 

I then completed one refined A5 sketch (below) but I felt this wasn't fully representative of what I could do, so I decided to create another one (above) and it came out a lot better than my previous one.
