Minimalism


Minimalism describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features. As a specific movement in the arts it is identified with developments in post-World War II Western Art, most strongly with American visual arts in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Prominent artists associated with this movement include Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Robert Morris, and Frank Stella. It is rooted in the reductive aspects of Modernism, and is often interpreted as a reaction against Abstract expressionism and a bridge to Postmodern art practices.

The terms have expanded to encompass a movement in music which features repetition and iteration, as in the compositions of Steve Reich, La Monte Young, Philip Glass, John Adams, and Terry Riley.

The term "minimalist" is often applied colloquially to designate anything which is spare or stripped to its essentials. It has also been used to describe the plays and novels of Samuel Beckett, the films of Robert Bresson, the stories of Raymond Carver, and even the automobile designs of Colin Chapman.

極少運動主義描述各種形式的藝術和設計,尤其是視覺藝術和音樂,那裡的工作被剝離到其最根本的特徵。作為一種特定的藝術運動,是認同發展後,第二次世界大戰西方藝術,最強烈的視覺藝術與美國在60年代末和70年代初。著名藝術家與此相關的運動包括唐納德賈德,艾格尼絲馬丁,羅伯特莫里斯,以及斯特拉。它是植根於現代主義還原方面,通常解釋為反應對抽象表現主義和後現代藝術的橋樑做法。

範圍已擴大到包括運動功能,在音樂的重複和循環,如組成的史蒂夫賴希,拉蒙楊,菲利普格拉斯,約翰亞當斯和特里萊利。

術語“最低限度”,往往是應用俗稱指定任何這是備用或剝奪其本質。它也被用來描述戲劇和塞繆爾貝克特的小說,電影的羅伯特布萊松的故事雷蒙德卡弗,甚至汽車設計科林查普曼。
