BASIC DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ABSTRACT PAINTING and NON-FIGURATIVE


     Abstract painting selects, articulates and in some way binds up what has been grasped in the exterior world with the world of its own phenomena before it then rearranges and transposes it into new compositional, contextual and semantic blocks which adapt themselves to the newborn form. In contrast, non-figurative painting has no such connection or allusion to the external world.

     In abstraction and abstract work we experience the presence of such meanings as well as the course of their transformation in response to the demands of the painting itself, whereas non-figurative painting has lost its link to the exterior world and its meanings. In this case painting intuitively steps into the spontaneityof self-made forms and embraces the substance of colour, abandoning form for a register of atmospheric sensation. The process of painting as well as the act of perceiving it shifts into a register of sensation and emotion and hides itself from both a conscious and a haptic spatial reading.
