Abstract
The Cultural significance is considered one of the artist’s tools to present many global issues and phenomena, as it is a proposition that enjoys great accuracy in understanding and interpretation, so it includes various aspects, including political, economic and social.” By the fifties of the twentieth century, the doctrine of “abstract expressionism” was linked to the concept of individual freedom, and the works of artists belonging to this school where art is understood as a self-expression of the life of each of them, and what is going on inside them. As a result, this American art movement constituted a useful means to defeat the realistic school in painting, which was officially approved in the former Soviet Union, and which favored drawings that depicted life as it is. Without exaggeration or fantasy.
When the US government realized the importance of the cultural aspect of confronting communism early on, then it struck the broad front of culture, including ideas, arts, literature, sciences, and everything related to the written, audio and visual word, in a continuous attempt to change the minds of peoples and encourage them to hate communism by presenting the American capitalist model culturally.
The researchers reviewed the work of a group of abstract expressionist artists, whose graphic works were characterized by having two levels within two directions, the first is defining shapes with strict linear borders that are very short and reach the degree of summarization that makes the realistic basis of shapes far from perception, and the second is searching for the details of the shape within a strict geographical molding of the color of through the colorimetric experiment.
