every harmonious masterpiece is made of arcs Harunobu [Momijimai] 2 ark model



 

“If you remove the colors and break the ukiyo-e into pieces, what remains is a group of various black and white sections and curves of various shapes. Take one out and arrange it on the original paper in various ways, and I think that what you get there will be very similar to the picture of some Futurist paintings.

(Terada Torahiko [Ukiyoe no kyokusen])

If you make a hole in the cylinder and blow it, you will hear a sound.

This is the smallest unit of sound

It is natural to make a second hole to make a different sound.

This discovery would have happened regardless of time and place.

Similarly, if the smallest unit of shape is a uniform curve with a bend,

It happens that you are conscious of the curve that looks different from the first curve.

This was the beginning of conscious artistic creation.

Let's make the arc model of "Autumn leaves dance" using eleven different circles.

All you have to do is looking at  masterpieces to find out what art is.

Masterpieces are easily recognizable like a high mountain.

With these examples, it seems unlikely that the painter would use arcs to compose with intuition alone.
