'Kinetic Pointillism' An Emerging Art Movement

Kinetic pointillism is an emerging art movement founded by Robert Ottesen, a renowned artist. Though its founder intended the movement for adult artists, it eventually became a passion for adolescents. According to Robert Ottesen, adults have been conditioned, over many years, to paint in certain ways. This is the first-ever book written on this great art movement, and the purpose of writing this book is to enlighten all artists, art students, art critics, and art lovers of this world about this unique subject.

Prior to the invention of Kinetic Pointillism by Robert Ottesen, pointillism was one of the world's most prominent art movements. Though the pointillism movement was launched in 1886 by French artists Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, this technique was widely used by artists in many countries, especially Australia's indigenous people. Popularly known as 'dot art' was a technique used by the aborigines of Australia. When the Aborigines used limited colour while creating dot art, the artists of the pointillism school used multicolours.

The main purpose of writing this book is to introduce the 'Kinetic Pointillism movement to the world and those artists who follow this technique. As Kinetic pointillism is an evolved form of pointillism, the author has dedicated the second chapter of this book to explaining the origin and evolution of pointillism, which eventually led to the birth of Kinetic pointillism. Also, a chapter has been completely dedicated to Robert Ottesen, the founder of this great movement. Robert Ottesen has taken a lot of initiatives to present this great movement to the world, and it is time for the world to recognize him now. Also, images of the artwork of all those artists who have adopted this style have been included in this book.

Since the Pointillism style was a passion for the author since his childhood, he always browsed art books and explored search engines to study more about this movement after the IT revolution. In fact, his attempt was to enjoy the unexplainable beauty of the pointillism style rather than conduct mere research. Like Rob Ottesen, other modern pointillism artists who have influenced the author are Kristen Pobatschnig, Siyavush Mammadov, Bogdan Cikarda, Nathalie Gribinski, Jennifer Bell, Norm Yip, Lee Asbell, and Arnold Bernstein. Though mentioned as a 'pointillism' style, the author has found either a few or all characteristics of pointillism or kinetic pointillism in these artists' works. Though all these artists don't follow the style of 'realism', they have successfully incorporated many good qualities of this style into their pointillism works.
