Action Art prints, pictures & posters, available now at artrepublic.com

Action art was a genre made famous by artists such as Jackson Pollock and is a more defined term of the Abstract Expressionism art movement. The ‘action’ element refers to the activity used to create a work, rather than the work itself. Paint was often dripped, splashed, or applied to the body or objects and transferred to canvas in a variety of dramatic ways. The results were exciting works that vividly portray the energy involved in their creation.

Here’s more from the action art definition within our Art Terms section

Action art was a term first associated with US art critic Harold Rosenberg. Opinion was divided in the art world over how much the creations were left to chance. However the work of Jackson Pollock, Sam Francis, Yves Klein and other prominent artists has been widely accepted as exceptional examples of the genre.
