Organic versus GeometricThese are works that represent the passage from organic or bio-morphic forms and their gradual confrontation with the geometric and with "hard-edge" techniques. In the 1960s that confrontation was a new and unexplored approach in Israeli art. Gradually, out of personal choice, the geometric tendency became dominant accompanied by a growing realization that geometric forms and later, geometric patterns, were a relatively untapped and supremely fascinating area of research and expression. This, despite the decline of geometric tendencies and Apollonian art in general in local and global popularity. |
