| Description: |
The shapes in this sculpture,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
brightness and shade...
The world of sugar and wine in this sketch,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings...
Sol Aris has not completed the
individuality
of this drawing.
The artist employs
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which thus
stand alone.
The strangely
twisted
upward
soaring
elements
of
Sol Aris's other works are
still present,
but
in a different form.
The sculpture shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
``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] |
