Richard Paul
Lohse Pure Elements Concentrated in
Rhythmic Groups (1949-1956)
I love this painting because of the
pattern. The artist was very good at painting something to catch the eye of the
viewer. The different colors in the stripes make the eye look at the painting
as a whole but also get entranced for it does not know what to focus on. These kind
of painting either hurt my head or make me so interested I cannot look away. And
that is a very big accomplishment. I also absolutely love the different color
patterns in each square, while they are not defined, to my eyes the colors separate
the painting into 9 different squares which reminds me of Andy Warhol’s work. His
Marilyn Monroe picture is similar in that the color patterns change with each
square. I think it would be so smart to set them up together for viewing to be
able to compare and contrast these completely different pieces, but how they are
also so similar.
I love Andy Warhol’s work, I once did
an art piece of my own based off of this very painting and I think that this
type of technique is very fascinating and would be wonderful placed with this
one of Paul’s pieces.
