| Description: |
The artist does not use
traditional proportions
to contain the
colours, which can by this means
stand alone.
The
idea behind post-impressionistic art
is that it encourages the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
An important part of this doodle is the impersonal forms and industrial colours
contrasting strongly with
the gently
curved
upward
reaching
components of the image.
``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] |
