The art, a continent without horizon

A thick line in a background, a red or yellow line, sometimes bleu…. Then a little bit oval, and seems to be like a white line……. Or it seems to be like this…. In the background there are clear and soft shapes. Maybe some trees, a distant house…that is, we know where the cloth transported us to Sudan. The Sudanese painters have crystallized their country by colored marks in clear backgrounds; these colored forms are Toubs, the white marks, the Djellabias… we could almost hear the fabrics slamming the air… then it is enough to go out of Khartoum, the sink in large spaces in the weak density which is offered by the Sudan and in fact, we will see its silhouettes which walk in the desert. In the  clothes of Sudanese artists. We will find streaming out colors, and when we discover the boards of Omer Khalid (January 2008 in the CCF) where colors are rare as if they were picked up to offer other possibilities… we ask ourselves. It is dark, nebulous, "we feel bad"….. and yet these clothes are not monotonous neither superfluous, in the contrary, we discover that the black, the white and all degrees that it implies, offer a great possibility as if we can discover a new language which permit to understand a new world….. We discover relieves in these flat clothes, we discover humors without an object presence. The stranger use to be material, we could have leanings to judge hasty, to almost push back… but we return back to it, without really appreciate, we are led to something that we do not understand and yet with which we learn to live, to discuss to contemplate, to accept.

     The art and mathematics divide this common point that the combinations are   infinitive; the creation of the man is unlimited, and those who knew how to master this creation, to satisfy it, to annihilate it are about to…

The debates about arts are going on; is it a mission of stretch towards the beauty, the good, has it to mix with politics? Can we authorize all under the pretext of the art? Is the art available for all or we have to "protect" it? Can it be attained freely or not? In all cases, to those who do not like it, it will always be vain to predict the end of the creativity of art for ones or for others, the art still a continent without horizon which asks always to be explored and re explored.
