Understanding What Figurative And Genre Art Really Are

By Enid Hinton


A lot of people are wondering why art is very pricey especially if it is really made by someone who has made a name in the industry. This is because you can expect that their pieces are of the same caliber. And it is something that is very valuable. The value that these pieces possess can sometimes be too high that it is not attainable for the common people.

If you are an artist, you would know that there are different types of techniques or method used to create a piece. The categories to where an art belongs might be confusing because the meaning that it is trying to portray can also be a basis of categorization. Two of the most well known types would be figurative and genre art.

Many people would just simply say that it is an artwork. But for the expert, there will always be classifications so that they would have an objective on what they are trying to make. With the use of the classifications it would be easier to bring out the unique feature that each artwork has. For example, you can see that those which are made with figurative style are the types of images that really happened.

One of the major different between the two is that genre pieces can just be created through the use of the imagination of the artist. It can be real but it can also be something that was just imagined. It can be confusing at times because the final pieces look the same.

One of the distinguishing element of a figurative portrait is the time being applied. You can see that it is derived from a specific era. This is one of the most important feature that distinguishes this from the other categories. It aims to show the type of culture that is present during that time.

Another thing that can be noticed is the clever mix of an intellectual concept with a common form of art. For example, the gods and goddesses in Greece where created to show a precise work for geometry and proportions. It is very difficult to achieve the perfect balance, thus they are pieces that are still celebrated up to this day.

If you are confused between the abstract arts and the figurative ones, you do not have to be. Abstracts are those works that you can barely recognized. There is an image but it would be hard to know what it is. The figurative ones are clearly defined so the images can be seen clearly.

Genre paintings and other artworks are another branch in this field. What makes it very popular is because it represents the daily life of a person. It can be used to document what is going on in a daily basis.

But the activities is just a small scope. You will also see that there are scenes being pictured. Various scenes would include those that are underwater and in the surrounding. This was made available when art was already made available for the average person.
