| Description: |
Of a sudden,
we see the
leading centralism
for
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
unreliability.
Contrasts of the senses of sight and touch
emphasise
the
broad scope
of this sketch.
The
idea behind post-impressionistic art
is that it encourages the artist
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
An important part of this picture is the gently
twisted
rapidly
floating
components
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours so clearly visible.
Such forms, violent and disconcerting, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self.
``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] |
