Women and people of color were actively exploring two-dimensional abstraction, but the "real" artists were sculptors; painting was dead.
Mr. Olitski's "Salome Rock" (1990) is a boldly atmospheric, almost three-dimensional abstraction, with paint smeared on in wavy streaks like cake icing.
O'Keeffe doesn't really know how she came to her own form of three-dimensional abstraction, characterized by strongly modelled forms and intense, luminous color.
Of all the genres of painting, landscape, with its window view of the world, its dependence on the illusion of depth, was arguably the one furthest from two-dimensional abstraction.
In Bilbao, Serra has created a walk-through three-dimensional abstraction that is unlike anything we have seen before.
However, many of those works are limited by the system modelling, and more specifically the one-dimensional abstraction suggested by Friis formula for the power received by one antenna under idealized conditions given another antenna some distance away.
68, 69 Although these representations are low-dimensional abstractions of binding patterns that miss, for example, asymmetric interactions, 70 they demonstrate a method to simplify complex patterns of cross-reactivity.
Various tools for modeling, such as dimensional analysis, abstraction and scaling, balance laws, and linearity are outlined in the chapter.
This chapter reviews some mathematical techniques such as dimensional homogeneity, abstraction and scaling, conservation and balance principles, and consequences of linearity.
Flaxman himself, in the two-dimensional linear abstraction of his drawings, a two-dimensionality implying rejection of Renaissance perspective and seen for instance in the expressive purity of "Penelope's Dream" (1792 93), had important repercussions throughout Europe.
The two-dimensional model abstraction of the actual 3D transport worked well for flux-averaged concentrations.
