        pottery
     was it an invention of the
             neolithic?

 It's still around
    full of simplicity
  an unassuming elegance
    a clarity
                of the form of each
     of these objects

   they are
       ARE
    as if there was no other way
                    to exist...

             the works of these two artists
                             seem to speak to each other

     they relate
               they respond
                         they produce echos
                   resonating in a world of white spaces
                           a world of
                                            silence

         a dyptich, a tryptich
      black & white
                  black white white
                                   gray gray and white
      Minimalistic,
 is that how to describe these works?

    a research into
               again and again
                                       new sizes,
          variations
                  that concern the distribution of
                      "non colors"

                            black
                                   white
                                            & grays

                     the eyes, reading them
                                relate

              Does  it takes all of eternity
                      does it take less than a second
                to comprehend
                            to encompass
                                      ALL
                                in its entirety ?

             narrow black area
           Look, there! it's no more than a
                                                 thin stripe
                    confronting  wide white  spaces
                                         bordered again by
                                narrow or wider grays
                                    grays that give way
                                                                to white

                             *     *     *

                           curved forms
                     their greens rounded by shadows
                         exist serenely

                      magical presence
                               of  female touch

     the music of objects in space -
           this, not any space

   a world of white walls / light from on high
       a gray floor
     a  cube,   revealing 3 of its sides

          one of them showing us a darker white
             the other a muted white
           the top one is the lightest

       three greenish objects:
  a pair of small bowls (not equal in size)
             & a large vase

         form a bridge stretching across
                     emptiness

                  their greens
           varied by the light by shadows
              appear to me
            like the magic of all secrets

          inside & outside
            big and small
          open and closed
         hollow -
                     protruding -
       breastlike cups
          useless bowls
         forming pairs
          their minute
                      touch
            infinitely fleeting
                   I thought

                  lined up: gray squares
               revealing the secret of
                                whiteness
                 enclosed in them

                        *    *    *

                lined up: the bowls
                 as if offering a sacrifice
             the present of
                    pure beauty
                  its timeless simplicity
