Art historians often divide contemporary art into categories: figurative art, abstract and representative. Although not in any way mutually exclusive, figurative art is made with the intention of representing a similarity. When painting a traditional portrait or still life for example, the artist tries to make a copy of what he sees before him. Abstract artist is more concerned with capturing a concept or feeling, often using the factors of symbolism, irony, overlay, etc. Abstract art challenges the viewer to discover its meaning.
