A definition or brief description of Abstract impressionism.

A tendency of the avant–garde, first appearing at the end of World War II, that transposed nature into its purely plastic values (lines and color). The artwork is characterized by the search for a vibrant, chromatic atmosphere, bringing them close to the impressionistic tradition.
