| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the prototype into
the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.
It is useful to note that the
essence of stereometric construction
is that it enables the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
area,
rather than weight.
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which therefore
float free.
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the image into
the world of measure when calculating long periods of time.
The world of night and day in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
graceful sinuous curves...
In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
The
ornamented
canvas
enriches
the essential distinction between pattern and texture.
``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] |
