| Description: |
The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to restrict the
colours, which in this way
stand alone.
The
receding
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
celebration.
The work shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
