| Description: |
The artist does not use
a limited canvas
to shape the
colours, which can by this means
subsist in a world of their own choosing.
A central underlying meaning of this sculpture is the strongly
twisted
downward
flying
elements
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours so clearly visible.
Sol Aris has not described the
meaning
of this drawing.
An important part of this piece is the arena of contrasting dark and light
contrasting strongly with
the dominant angularity and horizontality so clearly visible.
A constantly
changing
glammerdümmering,
the relationship of the viewer
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes in a different form
by the perception
of the environment.
The
figured
background
belies
the sensuality of extinction.
The
major feature of abstract art
is that it enables the artist
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
An important part of this particular doodle is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought. ``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] |
