What is the definition?
Do you have any examples?
ThanX

I don't have any examples myself to show.

Then, was the brown bag an example of abstract afterall? The brown bag submission still bothers me, 'cause I couldn't relate to it and everyone else did. I've returned to that thread many times and I just do not get it. I'm worried that something is amiss with my perception
I can't answer either one, really. I have a hard time reading abstracts as more than being pretty, so I tend not to get any communication from them. It's a really good question, and one that I haven't considered consciously before. I'll have to think on that.danalec99 said:-How do we communicate with an abstract art (be it photography or painting)?
-How did that art form evolve and why?

ABSTRACT: Here's the dictionary definition:
"Having an intellectual and affective artistic content that depends solely on intrinsic form rather than on narrative content or pictorial representation."
