| Description: |
It is important to understand that the
essence of the Suprematist school
is that it encourages the artist
to understand form in terms of
area,
rather than weight.
The strangely
contorted
downward
flying
elements in this image,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
dark and light...
The
receding
curves
are
closed
in a tribute to
surrealism.
``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] |
