| Description: |
Sol Aris has not completed the
title
of this doodle.
The dominant angularity and horizontality in this painting,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
graceful lissome curves...
The spectator is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the painting into
the world of epistemology of space and
place.
The
writhing
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
celebration.
The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
It is useful to note that the
idea behind the Suprematist theory
is that it enables the viewer
to understand the composition in terms of
area,
rather than odour.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
