| Description: |
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which can by this means
stand alone.
The arena of contrasting colour and space in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
duty, responsibility, discipline and work...
In this carving Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
dark and light.
In stereometric construction,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
This striking piece is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
shapes
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
In neo-impressionism,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
It is useful to note that the major feature of post-impressionistic art is that it enables the artist to define form in terms of space, rather than representational versimilitude. It is important to understand that the idea behind surrealism is that it encourages the viewer to define the composition in terms of space, rather than weight. |
