Hard-edge art is where distinct areas of colour are represented, often in a flat, uniform colour. Below is a selection of art which represents the hard-edge movement.
The term 'hard-edge' was coined in 1959 by Jules Langsner and Peter Selz to describe the work of a group of painters from California who produced works of art with deliniated areas of defined colour as a reaction to the more spontaneous nature of Abstract Expressionism.
