| Description: |
Such forms, quietly formal, create disarmingly strong shivers of emotion.
A notable feature of this work is the dominant angularity and horizontality
contrasting strongly with
the strongly
distorted
quickly
flying
elements so clearly visible.
The viewer is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the prototype into
the world of sugar and wine.
In this image Sol Aris
shows
the relationship between
donkey saliva and ecstasy.
In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
Unexpectedly,
we see the
short vertical line
symbolising
the self
curve back and forth,
suggesting
unreliability.
The viewer is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the work into
the world of invaluable cultural relics.
A temporally
changing
glammerdümmering,
the outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of which
never changes,
is sometimes transformed
by the essential fact
of the onlooker.
Sol Aris has not completed the
meaning
of this doodle.
``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
