American artists of the New York School rebelled against traditional Renaissance art, embracing Abstract Expressionism and working from their unconscious minds. They sought to stray from structured compositions and instead, followed their emotions and personal experiences. United by their desire to create from within, they produced a dramatic and monumental art that remains a unique expression of the quest for individuality and personal freedom.
