Composition

Basics of composition in the figure.
 Creating a work, the artist finds the specific relationship of objects and space. Places the figure, determines their place in the picture, drawing or sculpture, alternate lines and spots, found their proportions and dimensions, the whole artistic process is called composition and is more clear, profound and convincing the disclosure plan. The word composition, meaning the structure, composition, compound, does not fully express the meaning that is embedded currently in the concept. Earlier, in the old classical and academic art, the composition of skill of the artist felt balanced, harmonious and orderly arranged in the pattern shapes or objects. But in the nineteenth century, artists have put forward a realistic direction principle of composition. They believed that the composition must first correctly to pass the vital truth of the story taken by the artist, and so have all the elements of the image that most clearly reveal the ideological and could psychological conflicts and the essence of the characters portrayed. Despite the apparent discrepancy between these two different approaches to composition, its further development should proceed through the synthesis and overcome the contradictions between them. In the modern sense of balance and composition of the plastic in the construction of a vital truth of the works must be in a harmonic wholeness and unity. It is known that every image is limited to the edges of the plane or volume and has a size and format. Their choice was not accidental in the artist and should help reveal the ideas and the overall design work. Hence, the definition of format and size is one of the first elements of the composition. When M. Wrobel had intended to write a poetic fairy tale, the symbolic image of the defeated demon, he stopped for a very elongated horizontal format of the canvas of large size (139h387sm), on which he placed flat on Udall peaks of the Caucasus Mountains figure Demon, reveal the depth of distress being deprived of the will of the powerful and at the same time to show all his limitless power over nature, over time and space. Another plan demanded that the artist Valentin Serov a completely different format of the canvas. Getting to write a portrait of the great Russian actress Yermolova. Serov conceived to express its greatness and high moral character. Portrait of being born as a kind of monument dedicated to the actress during a long life touch the hearts of many with his play generations of viewers. Therefore, the artist stood on a slender vertical format large, the most appropriate way of monumental character. What would a truly significant work of art we may take, it is always the size and format associated with the design of the artist, the character created by them of the image, with the appointment and the stuff works. That's why we generally consider the resulting development of centuries-old art of certain laws in the construction works, with great sensitivity and skill are used creatively outstanding artists from different times and places. This last fact is very important, because of mediocre works of art principles of balance scheme is dead, but a vital truth in the construction of a composition is replaced by the external credibility and creates a surface naturalistic works.
 Composing a group, objects and parts of the image, the authors of the works come from the artistic ideas and the overall design picture, portrait or landscape. For example, to convey the deepest movements of the soul, the complex feelings of people, the artists often try to push the figure to the fore, to limit the space to give many details of the image and environment, so that nothing would distract the viewer from the perceptual appearance of the characters. A classic example of this type of composition can be one of the famous works of world art, painting <denarius of Caesar> Titian. On the canvas shows only two heads of the figures and two hands, but they fill the entire plane picture in which an amazing insight into human psychology shows the clash of two different characters. Whatever the manner in which figures and objects in painting or in any other form of art, we are considered, always in the composition formed a clear, crisp lines, the mass and shape, and form a more fragmented and small. This occurs in each product line system, color and weight creates a certain rhythm and movement, an important element of the composition. Channel >
