Un jāpiebilst, ka viņi nebūt nav autsaideri, bet spilgti, spēcīgi mākslinieki. Saprotams, Marks Rotko, Sajs Tvomblijs, Īvs Kleins, Agnese Mārtina iekļaujas mākslinieku – abstrakcionistu kategorijā, bet šī konstatācija pārāk maz ko dod viņu daiļrades izpratnei.

It is common to break down contemporary art into various trends, to single out tendencies, establish conceptions and strategies, emphasise discourses, describe contexts, recognise conventionality and engage in other similar analytical procedures. This is normal for professional critics and art historians; it helps the audience of contemporary art to orient itself across the manifold space of the latest artistic culture. However, there are artists whose works are ill-suited for such analytic systematisation. One should also note that these are not outsiders but remarkable, talented artists. Of course, Mark Rothko, Cy Twombly, Yves Klein and Agnes Martin can be categorised as abstract artists but this does not help us much to understand their works. In addition, this inclusive definition tends to set them apart from the current trends in contemporary art but their art continues to attract us and is perceived as the best in contemporary painting.
