Abstract art is always connected to something visual from the real world eg:Jackson Pollock, Convergence, 1952. .... Work that does not depict anything from the real world (figures, landscapes, animals, etc.) is called nonrepresentational.

Answer:

Nonrepresentational Art Versus Abstraction

For example, a landscape can easily be abstracted, and Picasso often abstracted people and instruments. Nonrepresentational art, on the other hand, does not begin with a "thing" or subject from which a distinctive abstract view is formed.
