| Description: |
An important part of this sculpture is the dominant angularity and horizontality
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours so clearly visible.
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The
never-ending
curves
are
closed
in a parody of
the Suprematist theory.
The emphatically factual experience of form and space of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but completely altered. The painting shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. |
