Abstract
A form of art that allows plenty of freedom and
flexibility for both the artist and audience to their own interpretation of
the art's meaning and value. It is to not simply
portray or replicate something of its realistic form but give insights to its value in a different dimension of thinking.

Basically it can be used
sarcastically as another way of saying your art piece sucks..
Or it can be said as a compliment; it just
depends on how you
take it.
Example:
Jeff: (extreme smile)
DUDE CHECK THIS OUT
Sarah: (
nods) Nice Jeff, that's very..um..
abstract.
Jeff: Wow. Thanks ._.
or
Jeff: I KNOW RIGHT.

When somebody doesn't want you to take something seriously, they tell you to think
abstract. So
concrete thinking would be solid, or tight thinking, and abstract thinking would be liquid, or loose thinking (
flexible).
Example:
The girl wanted to turn the guy into a
goofus like her, so she told him his
thinking wasn't
abstract enough.

Analysis of both district-level and aggregate time-series data from postwar House elections supports the thesis that strategic political elites play a pivotal role in translating national conditions into election results and therefore
in holding members of Congress collectively accountable for
the government's performance. More high-quality candidates run when prospects appear to favor their party; they also win significantly more votes and victories than other candidates in equivalent circumstances. Thus, strategic career decisions both reflect and enhance national partisan
tides. The electoral importance of strategic politicians has grown over time in tandem with the trend toward candidate-centered electoral politics. This has rendered the effects of national forces less automatic, more
contingent, thus threatening the capacity of elections to enforce some degree of collective responsibility.
Example:
An abstract strategy game is a strategy game in which the theme is not important to the experience of playing.Many of the world's classic board games, including chess, Go, checkers and
draughts,
xiangqi (Chinese chess), shogi (Japanese chess),
Reversi (marketed as "Othello"), nine men's morris, and most mancala variants, fit into this category.As J. Mark Thompson wrote in his article "Defining the Abstract", play is sometimes said to resemble a series of puzzles the players pose to each other:1

Abstract in art:
Abstract art is the subjective artwork with no defined process, strategy and/or technique label; it allows the viewer to interpret its meaning with his or her objective view of life in that specific art work; allowing artists to explore and represent a wide variety of pieces, from canvas and space to sculpture and more with no predetermined standard for good or
bad art.
