Landscape
I'm back on the road for a few days.
I will pick up on the pictorial turn with respect to the landscape and Mandy Martin and the Stephen David Ross interview and the sublime that I let drop.
William Turner, Landscape with a River and a Bay in the Background, c. 1845, Link courtesy of social fiction.org
There was a revival of the tradition of European landscape painting in the nineteenth century due to romanticism. Turner pushed the dissolution of forms into light to the edge of abstraction.
Exploring fragments in a loose constellation is the only that I can post when I'm on the road.
