EDITORS COMMENTS
This charcoal sketch, titled "Design for Woven Textile in grey and white," dates back to 1937, created in the Silver Studio. The intricate design showcases an array of geometric shapes, including suns, semicircles, and sunbeams, arranged in a jazzy, circular pattern. The monochromatic color palette of grey and white adds to the modern and minimalist aesthetic, making it a quintessential representation of the Art Deco style of the 1930s. The sun, a recurring motif in the design, is depicted in various stages of its cycle, with half suns and sunbeams radiating out from the center. The semi-circles surrounding the suns add an organic touch to the otherwise rigid geometric shapes, creating a harmonious balance between form and fluidity. The sketch was executed on copy paper, giving it a raw, unpolished feel that adds to its charm. The artist's deft use of charcoal allows for subtle variations in tone and texture, enhancing the intricacy of the design and adding depth to the overall composition. This design is a testament to the artistic innovation and creativity of the 1930s, a time when designers and artists pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the realm of textile design. The circular, sun-centric motifs and geometric shapes continue to inspire contemporary designers, making this an enduring and timeless piece of art.
