| Description: |
It is useful to note that the
idea behind abstract art
is that it encourages the artist
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
The picture shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The
receding
curves
are
forever engraved
in a homage to
misery.
``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] |
