| Description: |
A constantly
changing
glammerdümmering,
the scale and openness
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes in a different form
by the mere presence
of the outer surface.
The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The arena of contrasting colour and space in this drawing,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
invaluable cultural relics...
``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] |
