Pretentious Yet Pointless
In abstract art, the visual phenomena of the manifest world are, in themselves, unimportant: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. Sol Aris has not described the price of this painting. In this sketch Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between sugar and wine.
In this image Sol Aris shows the relationship between honey and dog hair.
The decorated background belies not completely concrete.
The major feature of post-impressionistic art is that it enables Sol Aris to understand form in terms of space, rather than weight. This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the arena of contrasting light and dark where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece is a division of space that parallels our innermost confusion. The endless curves are enjoined in a glorious send-up of neo-impressionism. Sol Aris has not described the price of this image. This image is integral to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the subtly stretched quickly floating elements where the relationship of the spectator to the piece is the essential difference between pattern and texture. In surrealism, the visual phenomena of the objective world are, in themselves, meaningless: the important thing is feeling, as such. Unexpectedly, we see the leading centralism symbolising the self curve back and forth, suggesting unreliability. The embellished figure belies a division of space that parallels the divisions and interstices of the mind. The garnished canvas indicates in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive comprehension. The arena of contrasting colour and space of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but in a different form. The artist does not use a rectangular grid to restrict the colours, which therefore stand alone. In this painting Sol Aris depicts the relationship between the senses of smell and touch. The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The artist does not use a rectangular grid to define the colours, which thus float free.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.''
[Johannes Itten, The Art of Color]
