| Description: |
The world of sugar and wine in this image,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
salt and pepper...
The impersonal forms and industrial colours
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
still present,
but
transformed.
In this painting Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
night and day.
The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The artist employs
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which thus
float free.
Sol Aris has not completed the
individuality
of this sculpture.
Sol Aris has not commented on the
price
of this image.
``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] |
