| Description: |
A constantly
changing
glammerdümmering,
the scale and openness
of which
is always the same,
is often transformed
by the perception
of the viewer.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to restrict the
colours, which thus
float free.
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
symbolising
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The
major feature of the Suprematist vision
is that it enables the viewer
to understand form in terms of
area,
rather than mass.
An important part of this particular sculpture is that it is not completely concrete.
Contrasts of brightness and shade
dominate
the
expanse
of the image.
``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
