Description: |
This picture is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
arena of contrasting tone and hue
where the relationship of the viewer to the sculpture
is
in some sense
active
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
The
idea behind the Suprematist school
is that it encourages the artist
to understand the composition in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than mass.
The
essence of post-impressionistic art
is that it enables the artist
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
The
never-ending
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
stereometric construction.
This picture is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
world of colour and space
where the relationship of the viewer to the image
is
an image of the process of creation.
Contrasts of summer and winter
march across
the
expanse
of this prototype.
Such forms, serene and tranquil, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self.
The world of night and day
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
still present,
but
in a different form.
The
essence of post-impressionistic art
is that it encourages Sol Aris
to understand the composition in terms of
space,
rather than weight.
In the Suprematist theory,
the visual phenomena of the
unexplored
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
In this piece Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
the senses of sight and taste.
Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment.
The artist does not use
a limited canvas
to contain the
colours, which therefore
subsist in a world of their own making.
The world of night and day of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. ``The dialogue created by the comination of textures, colours, and dimensions evokes nature in its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression. Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions represent man's drive for interpreting reality and our mental processes. In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist struggles to find inner serenity and to convey it in his work. Each piece becomes a unique instance of wholeness within the labyringht of life.''
