Παραδείγματα από το σώμα κειμένου για FIGURATION
1. We do not care – he plays the piano dematerialising percussive hammers, his figuration sometimes flickering in the sunshine of his tone like fireflies.
2. It brought together figuration and abstraction, expressionism and spiritualism, and a desire for the synthesis of all the arts – painting, music, theatre, high art and folk art.
3. In his first works he attempted to combine luscious brushwork, beautiful colour and the flat canvas with fairly primitive or half–effaced figuration or numbers or words – a compromise between realism and abstraction.
