Mouseion Escher - Birds - Fish sculpture triangle
Escher - Birds - Fish sculpture triangle
Escher, Vogels-Vissen, Systematic division of the plane, based on the rotational parallelogram system, in which Escher makes use of a double motif for the first time. This object stands on a standard and the total height is 17 cm. It is an interesting art gift for yourself or for someone else.
Sky and Water is, as is often the case with Escher, a simple as well as a complex story. A transformation is taking place. This work is such a fine example of Escher's well-known statement that he wants to bring order to the chaos that daily life often seems to be.
With Air and Water I (also with Air and Water II) we play with foreground and background. Our brains cannot decipher both a foreground and background at the same time. With the birds in the sky it is lost that their interspaces are in fact made up of fish.
