| Description: |
It is important to understand that the
essence of surrealism
is that it enables Sol Aris
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
The
never-ending
curves
are
enjoined
in a tribute to
misery.
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the image into
the world of measure when calculating long periods of time.
``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232] |
