Abstract expressionism was an American post–World War II art movement. It was the first specifically American movement to achieve worldwide influence and put New York City at the center of the western art world, a role formerly filled by Paris.

Although the term "abstract expressionism" was first applied to American art in 1946 by the art critic Robert Coates, it had been first used in Germany in 1919 in the magazine Der Sturm, regarding German Expressionism. In the USA, Alfred Barr was the first to use this term in 1929 in relation to works by Wassily Kandinsky.

A. There are many routes you could follow, but if you are very serious and have the genuine article, i.e. talent, I would very strongly suggest that you do one of two things: Hook up with a reputable and successful agent or show your work strictly through a reputable gallery representative.
