| Description: |
In the Suprematist school,
the visual phenomena of the
external
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interaction of forces.
Unexpectedly,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
strength
undulate towards the centre of the work,
suggesting
unreliability.
``Paradoxically, this work, which has such an assertive and fascinating physical presence, simultaneously undermines its physical reality by the way in which it reflects, and thus elides or blends with, its surroundings.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.262] |
