| Description: |
The
receding
curves
are
enjoined
in a tribute to
misery.
In constructive colour theory,
the visual phenomena of the
external
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
Such forms, serene and powerful, create disarmingly intenste feelings.
Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create strong gestalt sensations.
In this work Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
the senses of sight and touch.
The
garnished
figure
indicates
not completely abstract.
The
writhing
curves
are
intertwined
in a parody of
celebration.
The
endless
curves
are
intertwined
in a tribute to
post-impressionistic art.
The strongly
twisted
quickly
soaring
elements
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
entirely altered.
In Shaker æsthetics,
the visual phenomena of the
external
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
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 perception of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
an image of the process of creation.
The world of spring and autumn
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
still present,
but
in a different form.
A particularly contentious aspect of the drawing is that it is a reflection of the process of creation. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create strong gestalt sensations. The viewer is drawn by the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of the picture into the world of epistemology of area and quintessential hereness. |
