| Description: |
A constantly
evolving
glammerdummering,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
is always the same,
is often in a different form
by the understanding
of the outer surface.
An interesting aspect of the work is that it is the eternal dimension and its
endless possibilities.
The sculpture shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind abstract art
is that it enables the artist
to define form in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than representational versimilitude.
Semiotically,
we see the
leading centralism
representing
strength
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
Of a sudden,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
strength
undulate towards the centre of the picture,
suggesting
unreliability.
``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] |
