Abstract: The research includes studying the relationship between closed and Open Composition, and its beginning as a formative method, identifying the works of contemporary artists, the effect of Open Composition on shaping their artistic style, and trying to determine the appearance of open Composition in every work.
Through the successive ages, we notice that the change of perception towards the artist is a product of an evolutionary thought in life in general, and the arts in particular. The researcher noticed that interest in art and its forms was always associated with these changes, as it is tantamount to a discourse directed to the people, directly or indirectly. Then its goal expanded to become an art of self, which led with it to produce different forms of painting that differ in formal treatments (closed or open), through experimentation and self-perception, Therefore, the researcher sought to identify some forms of open formation in the contemporary painting, and to discover the new Composition values, to reduce the gap between contemporary art and the public.
