To Hans (Jean) Arp "organic life is the beginning of art, which grows out of man as a fruit from its seed"...Arp has an affinity with Klee, whom he met in Switzerland. Like Miro, Arp organises with conscious precision shapes which have arrived from unconscious sources. Art has declared that art and nature are not opposed, therefore he can seek his abstract forms in nature, finding them quite literally, in the shapes of moving clouds. "RELIEF IN WOOD"/1932 is a very organic composition as opposed to Mondrian's technoid contructions. Press image to return to "ABSTRACT ART' SHOW 2012 |
