| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the image into
the world of images rich
in insight and association.
The here and now experience of
size and perception
of
Sol Aris's other works are
still present,
but
in a different form.
The viewer is drawn by the
extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility
of the prototype into
the world of measure when calculating long periods of time.
``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
