"Abstraction" vs "Realism"

As far as I'm concerned there is no division between "abstraction" and "realism". The fact that we individually look at a world in constant flux makes any distinction between the two irrelevant. When it comes to art, the point is to open up an experience of the senses and emotions -which comes in all forms.
