Step into the captivating world of abstract art, where emotion and imagination take centre stage. Our expansive collection offers over 11,000 unique works by living, independent artists ready to redefine your space.
The Enduring Power of Abstract Art
Abstract art, at its heart, is a departure from representational imagery, instead using shape, colour, form, and gestural marks to communicate. It's a movement that invites the viewer to co-create meaning, fostering a deeply personal connection with each piece.
From the bold compositions of Diego Manuel Rodriguez to the nuanced explorations of Fernando Vieira and 83 Oranges, ARTHAUS showcases the incredible diversity within this genre. Our collection of abstract art prints offers a window into the unconstrained creativity of artists worldwide, making it accessible for every home.
Whether you're drawn to the vibrant energy of Sausa or the contemplative depth of Rizwana Khan, abstract art continues to resonate, providing a unique visual language that transcends literal interpretation and speaks directly to the soul.
Choosing & styling
Choosing abstract wall art for your home is about connecting with the feeling a piece evokes. Consider the mood you wish to create: warm, vibrant tones can energise a living room, while cool, tranquil palettes bring calm to a bedroom. ARTHAUS offers a vast selection, from colourful abstract art to sophisticated black and white abstract art, ensuring a perfect match for any interior.
Scale is key when decorating with abstract art. A large abstract art piece or an extra large abstract wall art can become a stunning focal point, especially in a spacious living area. Explore oversized abstract art on canvas or consider framed abstract prints to add a refined touch. Whether you prefer bold abstract art or minimalist abstract art, our collection provides modern abstract wall decor options to truly elevate your space.

Abstract Art — questions answered
What is abstract art?
Abstract art is a non-representational style that uses shape, colour, form, and gestural marks to create its visual language, rather than depicting recognisable objects or scenes. It focuses on the intrinsic qualities of these elements to convey emotion and ideas.
What does abstract art mean?
Abstract art's meaning is often subjective and co-created by the viewer. It doesn't tell a literal story but rather evokes feelings, stimulates thought, and expresses concepts through its formal elements, inviting personal interpretation and connection.
How do I choose abstract art for my home?
Choose abstract art that resonates with you emotionally and visually. Consider the existing colour palette of your room, the scale of the wall space, and the overall mood you wish to create. Think about whether you prefer bold, minimalist, colourful, or black and white abstract art.
How do you decorate with abstract art?
Decorate with abstract art by letting it guide the room's aesthetic. Use it as a focal point, selecting pieces that complement or intentionally contrast your décor. Consider scale – a large abstract art piece can anchor a room, while smaller framed abstract prints can create a gallery wall.
What makes a good abstract painting?
A good abstract painting often exhibits strong composition, compelling use of colour and form, and a sense of balance or dynamic tension. It should evoke an emotional response or provoke thought, demonstrating artistic skill and a unique vision without relying on literal representation.
Where should I hang abstract art?
Abstract art can be hung anywhere you want to introduce a statement or a mood. It's particularly effective as abstract art for living room spaces, bedrooms, or hallways. Consider hanging it at eye level, ensuring it's well-lit and that its scale is appropriate for the wall and the surrounding furniture.
