Minimalism
Minimalism was a primarily American art movement of the 1960s, characterised by simple geometric shapes and massive forms.
Minimalism in art goes beyond the idea of art imitating something else, challenging traditional ideas of craftsmanship while often leveraging mathematical systems. Normally, we think of art as showing something from the real world, like a landscape, a person, or even a potted plant. It can also represent emotions or feelings. However, in minimalism, there's no effort to show an external reality – the artist wants you to focus only on what's right in front of you. The material it's made from and the shape of the artwork itself are what matter. As the minimalist painter Frank Stella put it, "What you see is what you see.”
