What is Bay Area Figurative Art ?
The Bay Area Figurative Movement, which also goes by the names Bay Area Figurative School, Bay Area Figurative Art, or Bay Area Figuration, came to existence in San-Francisco Bay Area. This was in the mid-20th century, when a group of artists from the area stopped working on the then popular Abstract Expressionism for a preference to figuration in painting.
The movement lasted a total of two decades during the 1950's and 1960's.

Interactive art is a form of art where the spectator is actively involved by the artist to achieve the artwork's purpose. This involvement can include allowing the visitor to walk around, in, or on the art installation, or even becoming a part of the artwork itself. Works in this category often feature computers, sensors, and interfaces that respond to various inputs such as meteorological changes, heat, motion, or other types of data programmed by the artist.
Generative art refers to art that is wholly or partly created through an autonomous system. This system can be independent or non-human, capable of determining features that would otherwise be decided by the artist. The generative system can act as the creator or as a collaborator with the artist. Generative art often refers to works generated algorithmically by computers, where the system plays a significant role in the creation process.
Body art involves creating art directly on or with the human body. Common forms include body piercings and tattoos, but it also encompasses practices like branding, scarification, scalping, body painting, full-body tattoos, body shaping, and sub-dermal implants. Body art can also refer to a subcategory of performance art where the artist's body is central to the artwork.
