Pretentious Yet Pointless
A notable feature of this work is the dominant angularity and horizontality contrasting strongly with the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the image. Such forms, delicately modulated, create strong gestalt sensations.

| Description: |
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the drawing into
the world of single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings.
In this image Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
sugar and wine.
The
ornamented
ground
belies
in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive appreciation.
Unexpectedly,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
strength
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
Sol Aris has not supplied the
individuality
of this drawing.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this prototype,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
similarity of the senses of smell and taste...
A temporally
changing
evanescence,
the essential identity
of which
never changes,
is always in a different form
by the perception
of the outer surface.
A notable feature of this work is the dominant angularity and horizontality contrasting strongly with the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the image. Such forms, delicately modulated, create strong gestalt sensations. |
