Theo Willemse: The Art of Form
direct link: video (some clips) of Theo's show, The Art of Form.
drama of the view through, frame of sculpture, of carved and polished wood
cuts the scene like a tribal rite
forms with the presence of a Seurat, geometric, rounded, stabilized, and earthy, the bulbs of plants, organic, and that stillness of Resnais' Last Year at Marienbad (1961), intrigue of love, the pursuit that never arrives, this room contains
memories of trees, wood from a special and beloved tree, reborn in sculpture
tree of life
sweet friends
a Joycean moment
their bench in the middle of Ulysses
portrait of the artist as a middle-aged man
take a seat, contemplate life, or how to live
for an hour
come to the end of time with me, rest awhile
