A MASTERPIECE BY THE ALPHASEER

PLACING THE PHOTOS OF THIS BEAUTIFUL ART AT ITS DIFFERENT STAGES SIDE BY SIDE MAY HELP THE LAYMEN BETTER APPRECIATE THE EFFORT PUT INTO ITS CREATION. THE WHITE AREAS HAVE BEEN SELECTED IN OUR EXAMINATION. THEY ARE THEN SUBDIVIDED INTO THE ZONES OF A1, A2, B1, B2, AND B3  ( A1 BEING THE WHITE AREA COMPRISING THE GIRL’S FACE AND SURROUNDING SPACE IN THE FIRST THREE PICTURES, A2 IS THE WHITE AREA THAT COMPRISES THE GIRL’S FACE AND SURROUNDING SPACE IN THE 4TH PICTURE. B1 IS THE WHITE AREA FORMING THE TEAT AND THE BUTT IN THE THIRD PICTURE, B2 BEING THE WHITE AREA FORMING THE TEAT AND THE BUTT IN THE 4TH PICTURE. B3 BEING THE WHITE AREAS FORMING THE TEAT AND THE BUTT IN THE FIRST PICTURE. THE BIGGER PICTURE REPRESENTS THE FINAL FINISHED PRODUCT.) WE MUST ALSO EXAMINE THE THE BLACK ZONES LATER OF COURSE, IN LIKE MANNER. ART MUST BE FULLY EXAMINED AT ITS CORE,–NOT JUST WATERED DOWN WITH OTHER PEOPLE’S OPINIONS. WHO ARE THESE “OTHER PEOPLE”? THEY ARE: ALL OF OUR ART SCHOOL PROFESSORS, ALL OF OUR ART CRITICS, ALL OF OUR  GALLERY OWNERS, ALL OF OUR MUSEUM DIRECTORS, AND ALL OF OUR CURRENT SO-CALLED “ARTISTS.” ALL? YES, BECAUSE ART IS UNDERSTOOD BY SO FEW. TO PUT IT MORE SUCCINCTLY, ART CAN ONLY BE FULLY UNDERSTOOD BY THOSE ENDOWED WITH THE INTUITION FOR THE RECOGNITION FOR CALLIGRAPHIC AND COMPOSITION BEAUTY, IN OTHER WORDS, THE ARTISTIC GENIUSES. IN OUR LIFETIME ART HAS BEEN FULLY UNDERSTOOD BY GORKY, DEKOONING, ELIAS GOLDBERG, KNOX MARTIN, AND BEN LAU, AND THEY CAN BE COUNTED ALL ON ONE HAND. IN AN EARLIER TIME, ART WAS FULLY UNDERSTOOD BY INGRES, CEZANNE, MATISSE, PICASSO, SEURAT, JUAN GRIS AND DEGAS. THAT NUMBER IS A LITTLE BETTER BUT STILL VERY, VERY SMALL!

AS SHOWN IN THE FOLLOWING PICTURES, A2 IS OBVIOUSLY SUPERIOR TO A1 BECAUSE A2 IS MORE SMOOTH AND MUCH MORE ELOQUENT THAN A1, AND AS A RESULT, A2 SHOULD BE CONSIDERED STRONGER AND MORE COMPACT.

BY BRINGING B1, B2 AND B3 TOGETHER, IT CAN BE IMMEDIATELY OBVIOUS THAT B3 HAS BEEN MISERABLY BLOCKED BY A TRIANGULAR BLACK FORM RIGHT IN ITS MIDDLE. AND THAT STOPS B3 FROM RUNNING SMOOTHLY, SO TO SPEAK, OR CONVERSING FREELY WITH THE TOTAL BLACK FORM, WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO TWIST AND TURN THROUGH SPACE LIKE A BLACK DRAGON. ( RECALL THE GREAT CALLIGRAPHY BY WANG HSI CHIH AND YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT I MEAN. THEN FINALLY, I HAVE DETERMINED THAT THE MIRROR IN FRONT OF THE GIRL CAN GO BETTER WITH THE REST OF THE COMPOSITION IF CHANGED FROM A RECTANGULAR SHAPE TO AN OVAL ONE. THEREAFTER, THE FLOW OF THE TOTAL BLACK IN THE FINAL PRODUCT, WHEN TAKEN AT A GLANCE, WON’T APPEAR AWKWARD LIKE ITS PREDECESSORS, I.E. THE FIRST THREE PICTURES, BUT RATHER, WAY MORE SMOOTH AND FIRED UP LIKE A ROARING RIVER. IF YOU RECALL THE GREAT CALLIGRAPHIC MOVEMENT OF WANG HSI CHIH, YOU WOULD AGREE THAT IT IS THE RIGHT MOVE TO MAKE. IN NONE OF THOSE CHANGES HAVE THERE BEEN ANY CONJECTURE INVOLVED. THE INCREASE OF THE COMPOSITION’S STRENGTH AND VITALITY OVERALL IS JUST TOO OBVIOUS TO DISMISS, EVEN TO A KID.

NOW THE RULE OF LINEAGE ART APPLIES: WHATEVER THE BLACK IS DOING, THE WHITE IS BOUND TO FOLLOW SUIT, AS WHITE IS A FUNCTION OF BLACK, AND VICE VERSA. IN OTHER WORDS, IF BLACK TWISTS AND TURNS LIKE A RIVER, OR A DRAGON, ITS WHITE COUNTERPART TENDS TO DO LIKEWISE. THIS IS NOT JUST AN ARBITRARY RULE BUT AN INVIOLABLE LAW OF YIN AND YANG. BLACK AND WHITE ARE COMPLEMENT TO EACH OTHER! IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO, LIKE THEY SAY! UNFORTUNATELY, THIS HAS COME TO BE THE HARDEST PART FOR THE LAYMAN TO UNDERSTAND. IF YOU CAN ACHIEVE THIS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TASK,–MAKE NO MISTAKE, THE GREAT MASTER KNOX MARTIN WILL NOT FAIL TO RECOGNIZE YOU AS A GREAT ARTIST!
