retro-modern  expressionism

Retro-Modern Expressionism is an art style that harmonizes the nostalgic charm of mid-century aesthetics with the bold, abstract energy of modern expressionism, crafted with the assistance of artificial intelligence. This style captures timeless scenes—romantic couples, elegant cityscapes, and serene portraits—using vibrant colors, fluid lines, and dynamic brushstrokes. Figures and forms are distilled to their essence, focusing on mood and movement rather than precise detail.

​Retro-Modern Expressionism celebrates the beauty of connection and place, with each AI-assisted piece inviting viewers to experience both familiarity and a fresh, contemporary perspective. It’s a visual dance between past and present, embodying elegance, emotion, and the energy of life in motion.

Abstract Affection

A colorful, cubist-style portrait of a couple sharing a tender moment, their faces close and expressions soft, embodying love and connection in geometric forms and vibrant hues.
​Now, here’s a sight that’ll set a person thinkin’ about love in a way they might not have before. This couple, painted in bold colors and broken into all manner of shapes, is the very picture of affection. They’re close—close enough that their foreheads almost touch, like they’ve got secrets to share that no one else ought to hear. It’s a quiet kind of intimacy, the sort of look folks give when they’ve found somethin' real special in each other.
The artist’s gone and made ‘em up in a cubist style, with each face broken into blocks of color—greens, blues, reds, and yellows—all collidin' and mixin' in ways that ain’t quite natural, yet somehow they feel just right. Each color seems to stand for somethin' different, maybe all the parts of themselves they’re bringin’ into this moment. He’s wearin' a bowtie, lookin' every bit the gentleman, with soft shades of olive and brown, while she’s got her face painted in brighter blues and reds, a warmth in her gaze that you can feel even through the layers of abstraction.

Their expressions are gentle, softened by the closeness they share. You’d think the sharp edges and blocky colors would keep ‘em apart, but somehow, all those angles just bring ‘em closer together, like they’re two parts of the same picture, each incomplete without the other. It’s a reminder that love ain’t always smooth or simple—it’s a patchwork of moments, good and bad, woven together in colors bright and dark.
​
This here piece may be abstract, but it’s got a heart to it. It’s a snapshot of connection, proof that even the boldest, wildest colors can come together to make somethin’ beautiful.

The blog post "Abstract Affection" on Retro Art World beautifully captures the essence of love through a cubist lens. The depiction of the couple, with their foreheads nearly touching, evokes a sense of intimate connection. The use of bold colors and fragmented shapes not only adds visual interest but also symbolizes the multifaceted nature of relationships. It's a compelling reminder that love, in all its complexities, can be both abstract and profoundly real.
