Suprematist Composition
This Punk is inspired by CryptoPunk #9849 and the work of Sophie Teuber-Arp. Sophie, a Swiss artist, better known as a designer of costumes for Dadaist performances, has always been in the shadow of her husband, the poet, painter and sculptor Jean Arp. However, Sophie's field of activity was much wider: she was a graphic artist, sculptor, painter and even a dancer in the cabaret "Voltaire".
Toiber-Arp — Composition, 1937
The SupremePunk is inspired by the Toiber-Arp painting "Composition". This painting was one of the works in the constructive style. The artist designed various prints for clothes and fabrics. This painting is made in a rather classical abstract style, the composition of the work is stable, all the figures are in verified positions. The color scheme of the painting is diverse and decorative.
Photo portrait of Toiber-Arp in the Dadaist style, 1920
The SupremePunk repeats the color scheme of the Toiber-Arp painting, the colors are diverse, but at the same time harmonious. The composition of the painting is stable and static. The center of the composition is supported by horizontal and vertical lines. The colored planes are highlighted with a black outline, which gives the work a collage and decorativeness.
Jean Arp — Before I was Born, 1914
A similar style of work can be found in the works of Jean Arp. Jean was the husband of Sophie Teuber-Arp, their work is interconnected, they often worked in the same workshop and inspired each other. Jean Arp is an outstanding German artist, sculptor, designer and poet. He was a founding member and participant of many avant-garde groups in Zurich, Munich, Berlin, Cologne, Paris. Chevalier of the main Orders of France in the field of culture, winner of many prestigious awards. A large collection of works is presented in the Museum of New and Modern Art in Strasbourg, standing on the square named after H. Arp. The artist's name is given to the cultural center in Clamart, a street in Paris. The Arpa Foundation in Bonn received the status of a national museum in 2004. His collage work "Before I was Born" was a kind of protest against traditional painting techniques, a rejection of academic techniques. In this picture, pieces of paper are formed into a figure that resembles a child in the womb.
Jean Arp — The Dancer, 1925
Also worth mentioning is Arpa's painting "The Dancer". The abstract figure of the dancer looks more like multicolored fabrics fluttering in the wind. It is difficult to understand where his head is, and whether there is one at all. Perhaps it is expressed by a black dot, or maybe the black dot is the eye. From a distance, the image as a whole resembles some kind of mysterious animal.
SupremePunk repeats the color scheme of Jean Arp's paintings, the colors in the painting are calm and well thought out. The work has a clear graphic quality of collages, the plot canvas has a characteristic black contour and flatness of the image.
