American Representational Art

American Representational Art

The focus of Resource Library and the our Free Online Digital Library is American representational art. While visual art -- with the exception of unaltered photographs -- is abstracted to some degree, representational art is easily recognizable by the vast majority of people as depicting objects in the natural world, expressed through topics such as classical realism, impressionism, surrealism, and figurative modernism. American representational art is further defined by Us as art that was created from the earliest period of American art history to the present time by United States citizens, American colonists or Native Americans living in the era prior to the formation of the United States
