The document tells about [Pink Nude],
“After he finished a painting, the assistant took a picture then washed clean the canvas for the next session .
the same process was repeated 22 times.”
I had thought
that this is why Matisse’s [ pink nude] has finished look with a simple manner,
as if the lines were traced on a sketch drawn in advance.
But the good balance
can not be acquired on blank canvas with no traces even after 22 trials because the balance is largely depending on position
I use the same illust from the second blog about [pink nude].
The black and white photo is the first version.
What is common to the two pictures is that the body parts protrude outside the canvas.
Besides many curves are the same arcs.
Here is the circle-arc pivot model I made for the same blog.
The model shows that
A) the main body can be made of five different sized circles.
B) the green circles are fastened at several points (pivots).
When I wrote about [Dance] ２
I found Matisse reached more advanced stage of syntax which I named circle-cross model level.
Forgetting about the document I guess how to achieve this balancing effect.
To use the unit (a set of circle and the vertical ,horizontal diameter) device, the picture screen must be extended.
It is obvious that thegreen circles are most important structualy.
The model shows that
the seventeen parts of the smooth body are made of the arcs of the same circle.
The same circle-arc
framework technique can be seen in Hokusai’s [Tomegane] and Seurat’s
[Cancan].
Masterpieces are no drawn but designed.
The universal
technique rediscovered by Modern Artist was not understood grammatically,which is the reason for the stagnation of the current art world.
