Synopsis

The pictorial expression that is shared by many contemporary artists all over the world can be traced back to the cradle of humanity. It builds on the three universal principles of art: art can give pictorial form to ideas and concepts (imagination), it can quite simply use symbols and patterns to present complex matters (abstraction) and, finally, it may serve as a medium for telling and representing a story or a ritual act (narration). Each of the three sections in the publication Signs of Life is dedicated to one of these three aspects.
