Abstract-classicism (also called as Hard-Edge) : Refers to the paintings of a group of West Coast artists working in the 1960s. Named by critic Jules Langsner in 1959, the style is characterized by the use of large shapes with sharp outlines that extend across the canvas from edge to edge, painted in two or three saturated hues.
