what is abstract drama
 Abstract set design, developed in the early part of the 20th century, is a form of theatrical stage design used to create dramatic elements. The concept uses minimal stage props and decorations, while integrating audience imagination, to create the suggestion of an environment and focus the audience's attention on the actor's performance and their costume designs.

Origin

·         The abstract approach to creating a dramatic setting began with the work of Adolphe Appia and Edward Gordon Craig, both in the early 20th century. The theater remembers Adolphe Appia for his contributions in new lighting techniques and his use of stage space and creative scene design. Edward Craig developed his own new theatrical approaches to the use of light and shadow on stage. Together, their influences ushered in the dramatic new style of stage performance known as abstract drama. Their contributions spread through other specialties, including theatrical dance.

Abstract Realism

·         Abstract realism is difficult to explain because of the infusion of two distinct styles of art: abstract and realistic. Abstract does not attempt to depict real objects, as it is concerned only with the colors, lines, shapes and rhythms that create the artwork. In a sense, abstract art is art without a concrete, physical construct to work from. Realistic art aims to create realistic interpretations of real objects. When you combine these two concepts, you get a new style of art that attempts to depict the emotions behind a particular real-life object.
