Magie der Form

About

"The line does not imitate the visible, but makes visible." (Paul Klee)
 
Concentration on pure form is always also an ordering of thoughts, better still: limiting, condensing the diffuse, the drifting, the unsorted. The art of the simply concrete is therefore not so much the creation of order as the exclusion of disturbance, not an escape from the world, but the design of a shaped, creative world - even if it is the smallest.
Everything concrete can be read as a seismograph to test the acceptance of reduced attitudes calibrated to the form and function of reason or to recognise it in its value for a purposefully designed world. Perhaps our willingness to understand the non-narrative as a yardstick and an appeal for self-examination is a much more important issue in the first place than all the judgements and conflicting opinions that otherwise determine everyday life.
