Abstract Expressionism was a post-World War II art movement, originating in New York, characterized by its spontaneous, non-representational style that emphasized the artist's personal emotional expression through techniques like action painting and color field painting. Key features include large-scale canvases, emphasis on the creative process and the artist's gesture, and a move away from realistic imagery to convey meaning and emotion through abstract forms, shapes, and colors.
