Hi Kenrose,
From this text I would say "no".........
While the concept of geometric, mathematical shapes often comes to
mind when thinking about modern or abstract art, other approaches are
also fulfilling. Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky is sometimes
credited with being one of the earlier artists to paint an abstract
picture, and yet, like Spanish surrealist Joan Miro, his images are at
once complex, with curved lines a heavy dose of movement. Today,
reproductions of some of Kandinsky's work can even be found in the
IKEA catalogue. And Miro's work is forever imprinted on the minds of
jazz fans and lovers of modernism for its appearance on the album
covers of pianist Dave Brubeck ("Time Out"; "Time Further Out"). In
fact, according to Brubeck, the music contained in "Time Further Out"
was inspired by Miro's work. |
