| Description: |
The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The arena of contrasting happiness and beer in this prototype,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
similarity of night and day...
Contrasts of spring and winter
dominate
the
emptiness
of the work.
Such forms, rapidly moving and disconcerting, create disarmingly strong feelings.
The emphatically factual experience of
form and space
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
The artist uses
a limited canvas
to define the
colours, which in this way
subsist in a world of their own doing.
