Creating a masterwork of art can be like wandering through a maze: after a lengthy period of reflection and contemplation, you’ll still probably starve. Appreciate an artist's risks and transcendent joys with today’s Groupon to Absolute Abstract in Midtown Village. Absolute Abstract specializes in affordable, quality decorative art for the home or office. With abstract/Tribeca works, photography and celebrity, retro and vintage, and pop art/youth loft canvas art pieces ($199–$329), as well as tin signs ($18 for one) and art blocks ($39 for one), Absolute Abstract has the frameless framework to suit any beautification scheme. All images are printed on high-quality, UV-protected linen-art canvases for long-term durability. Absolute Abstract’s welcoming atmosphere will loosen up newbies, with cold, lavender-scented towels served during the summer and hot mulled apple cider available in the winter. And with the prices of all pieces in the store clearly marked, you never have to feel awkward asking an employee if they accept Sacagawea dollars.
