se shapes show a flat, two-dimensional movement
need an open view out of the painting.
The artist has adopted what Roger Fry described as
the emotional or poetic unity that he put in exchange
for the visual unity presented by the closed classical
composition. It creates a "psychological center" for
the painting in exchange for the "engineering center"
presented by the Renaissance era.
Farouk Hosny used the harmony of shapes, achieving
the expressive unity of the artwork, relying on the vivid
lines and colors and their flow to immerse the work
with an open visual stretch so that the movement of
the shapes appears parallel to the level of the painting
and not in its perspective depth. Thus,he has achieved
an open movement directed to the artwork’s centre.
Abstract artwork exceeds its frame, and expands outside
it, no one can stop its movement as we indulge into
the core of colors through visual structures that attract
the eye to their sensual scope and direct it to whatever
paths it desires.
Farouk Hosny has invited us to explore these free
atmospheres and to experience some of what he
experiences and to enjoy the freedom, even for a short
period of time.
