Though the styles and approaches of these artists varied considerably, Abstract Expressionism is marked by abstract forms, expressive brushwork, and monumental scale, all of which were used to convey universal themes about creation, life, struggle, and death (" the human condition "), themes that took on a considerable relevance during and after World War II.

This is an Abstract Factory.

The essence of the Abstract Factory method Pattern is to " Provide an interface for creating families of related or dependent objects without specifying their concrete classes ".

In the spectrum between interpreting and compiling, another approach is transforming the source code into an optimized Abstract Syntax Tree ( AST ) then executing the program following this tree structure, or using it to generate native code Just-In-Time.

Abstract Syntax Notation One ( ASN. 1 ) is a standard and flexible notation that describes rules and structures for representing, encoding, transmitting, and decoding data in telecommunications and computer networking.

Thomas B. Hess wrote that " the ‘ New figurative painting ’ which some have been expecting as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism was implicit in it at the start, and is one of its most lineal continuities.

While the movement is closely associated with painting, and painters like Arshile Gorky, Franz Kline, Clyfford Still, Hans Hofmann, Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock and others, collagist Anne Ryan and sculpture and certain sculptors in particular were also integral to Abstract Expressionism.

Abstract Impressionism is a type of abstract painting ( not to be confused with Abstract Expressionism, a similar but different movement ) where small brushstrokes build and structure large paintings.

While in the action painting style of Abstract Expressionism brushstrokes were often large and bold and paint was applied in a rapid outpouring of emotion and energy, the Abstract Impressionist's short and intense brushstrokes or non-traditional application of paints and textures is done slowly and with purpose, using the passage of time as an asset and a technique.

A contemporary heir to the Abstract Impressionist form is William Duvall, whose Eco-Abstract paintings are done outdoors.
