For some time they stay in the grass, in the rushes of river, in the meadows or among the rocks. Nature registers its presence, covering the surface of the paper with colors, forms and tracks. \u003cbr\u003eThis process is controlled by a number of agents; such as space and time, substance and causality. It is governed by nature's intensity. It does not, depend on man's interference. \u003cbr\u003eNature is the greatest and most admirable creator, and unlike logic it doesn't fail.\u003cbr\u003eThe artist obligation is not to shape - handicraft, but to understand the riddles of reality.\u003cbr\u003e In such conception of Art there lies, as in the Universe itself, an immense richness, and a countless variety of forms.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNatural Art and other artistic actions and artworks of Jacek Tylicki are presented in this book, with a comprehensive introduction by Leszek Brogowski.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBook contains 37 full color illustrations.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"21UNIVERSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49782590800112,"sku":"9780985369231","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780985369231","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
