Pretentious Yet Pointless
A notable feature of this particular painting is that it is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive appreciation.

| Description: |
A particularly contentious aspect of this sculpture is the impersonal forms and industrial colours
contrasting strongly with
the strangely
curved
rapidly
floating
articulations of the image.
This striking piece is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
emphatically factual experience of
night and day
where the relationship of the spectator to the prototype
is
a division of space that parallels
our innermost confusion.
A notable feature of this particular painting is that it is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive appreciation. |
