ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The term ‘Neo-Formalism’ was first used in an unpublished article ‘The Artistt’ on the ContXpression WordPress Blog, which was a narrative attack on the perceived moral deficits of the modern/contemporary movement where commercialism and governmnet sponsored elitism stifle artistic creativity. The article accused the contemporary/modern art movement gatekeepers not only of political conservatism but also bourgeois materialism. Neo-Formalism is a proaction aimed at the obvious deficiencies in the practice of contemporary/modern art practices as J.K. Arnold stated ‘the debasement of artist expression; the production of art for commercial galleries; the moral bankruptcy of government sponsored art institutions has led to the inability to establish a meaningful aesthetic for new artistic practices worldwide through in the contemporary/modern art movement’. The revival of the tradition of formalism albeit in a new form will be seen then as only the only progresiive response to the troubling situation that the contemporary/modern art movement finds itself in.

Our objective is to redefine the political economy of modern/contemporary art practice away from its current dominance of narrative definition and return to a a practice where it is defined by its visual presence. The dominance of of the narrative over the visual presence in contemporary/modern art practice is a result of the commodification of modern/contemporary art practice caused by domination of private art galleries and government funded insinstitutions. We aim to democratise contemporay/modern art practice by returning the control of its political economy to the hands of the practitioners and have it defined by its visual presence and not by its narrative interpretation. Our aim is to have every household in every country of the world not only as owners of modern/contemporary art pieces but also as their narrative interpreters and to be share the practice of creating, critiquing and interpreting modern/contemporary art through social media as opposed to the current practice where private galleries, government institutions and elite collectors define and interpret narratively the meaning of visual representations.Contact Saatchi Art and ask for some free samples of my work and contact me in regard to free art for charities or for anything else.
