Invisible Formulations in Modern Abstract Painting

This research explores invisible formulations in modern abstract art as a crucial aesthetic dimension in plastic discourse, emphasizing how modernist movements utilized them to enhance aesthetic contemplation. The study is structured into four chapters.

Chapter One establishes the research problem, centered on the question: What are the invisible formulations in modern abstract art? It details the study's importance, need, objectives (identifying these formulations), and defines key terms.

Chapter Two presents the theoretical framework and previous studies across two sections: the concept of the invisible form in the abstract movement, and abstraction between the ideal of beauty and images of the invisible. It concludes with framework indicators.

Chapter Three outlines the methodology, including the population, sample, tools, limits, and the analysis of three selected models.

Chapter Four presents the results and conclusions. Key results indicate that artists intentionally design invisible abstract forms with an expressive curve toward spontaneity and improvisation, opposing rigid geometric art. This creates irregular abstract forms in line, color, and expression to showcase free emotional affect. Furthermore, abstract formulations rely on a free rhythm to build unique, non-repeated formal structures in space.

The research concludes that modern art grants artists freedom for expressive, symbolic composition, offering expansive temporal and spatial horizons unconstrained by narrow social or intellectual frameworks. Finally, a list of sources and appendices is provided.
