Pretentious Yet Pointless
This image is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the arena of contrasting tone and hue where the essential identity to the work is the pattern of unconscious thought.
``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]
