Great art can exist and affect people through pure visual power, emotion, atmosphere, or mystery—even when its meaning remains unclear or deliberately ambiguous. Understanding can deepen appreciation, but it is not a prerequisite for impact or value.Many masterpieces (abstract expressionism, color field, some surrealist works) thrive precisely because they resist complete understanding.https://www.theartstory.org/definition/abstract-expressionism/
