Canetti has chosen the subject matter of this piece to be the female form. He has chosen to keep the main face and background a cool blue colour with highlights of darker blues and pinks setting skin tones and shading. Canetti focuses on key features of the face such as eyes, nose, mouth and hair, but he also uses the keyhole of the nose, the lips, the forehead and the collar of the shirt. The only part of the face that is not covered is the forehead, which is painted white. Canetti has illuminated this part of the face by placing an electric red nail on it, and he has also placed a large red square in the center of the face. The nails are painted with a very dark green and are very visible, but the square is just visible from the side. The nails are a reference to Canettis own face, and they are a reflection of the effect of the electric nail on his face. The nails seem to be the only means of getting the person to acknowledge Canetti is there. Canetti has also used the nail as a key to the women. She wears a white coat and shoes and wears her right hand on the heel of her right foot, which is the only place where the nail meets the heel of the coat. The nail is like a signature, a sign of who she is, and is the only place where Canetti can put his finger on her. The nails are an expression of the energy of the hand, a sign of the strength of the hand. Canetti has used the nails as a symbol of the hand, a symbol of the strength of the hand, and this is the only time the hand is not covered.The other part of the body is painted white. Canetti has placed a red nail on this part of the body and has also placed a red square on the back of the neck. The nails are the only place where Canetti can put his finger on the neck. The nails seem like a reflection of the hand of a man, an indication that Canetti is not sure whether he wants to use them as a symbol of masculinity or of femininity. Canetti has chosen to use the nails as a symbol of the male body, a symbol of the masculine.
Canetti has chosen the subject matter of this piece to be the female form. He has chosen to keep the main face and background a cool blue colour with highlights of darker blues and pinks setting skin tones and shading. Canetti focuses on key features of the face such as eyes, nose, mouth and hair, all of which are lit up to the edges of the canvas, which are then shadowed by a masklike background which is set in the foreground and cuts off by a long, thin, red line. These two parts of the work, the face and the background, are thus different, as are the lines of the mask. Canetti has also applied some white glue to the mask in a manner that echoes the wrinkles of the mask. The mask is then covered in paint, and the paint applied to the mask has been left bare, leaving a blank mask, a figure without a face. Canetti has then left the mask alone, covering it with a masklike, tinted surface and using a masklike brush to create a sort of abstract, almost abstracted expression. Canettis choice of the female form, of the female face, is a response to the technical means by which we are presented with art, and it is a response that is to be found in his work as much as in that of other artists.Canetti has been making these masks for many years. They are not new, but they have been around a long time. The masks, or masks, as they are sometimes called, are not new in their use of masking tape, as in the work of many young artists. The masks have been used by artists who are very concerned with the effects of technology. They have been used in the work of artists who are concerned with the effects of technology, and who are also concerned with the effects of art. The masks are used for their own sake, and not to make art, or to test the possibilities of the medium. They are used in a way that is not designed to be seen, but to be used. Canetti has done away with the mask, but not entirely, with the medium. The masks, with the exception of a few, are still attached to the masklike surface with mask tape.
Canetti has chosen the subject matter of this piece to be the female form. He has chosen to keep the main face and background a cool blue colour with highlights of darker blues and pinks setting skin tones and shading. Canetti focuses on key features of the face such as eyes, nose, mouth and hair, but his art has never been so much about the individual features as about the overall patterning of the face. In his work Canetti uses the two-dimensionality of drawing to heighten the visual and tactile experience of the face. The drawing is not about the individual face as such, but about the expression of a face which can be read as a series of expressive gestures. The drawings are never self-consciously art; they are simply one more in a long line of drawings which the artist has been making since his first one-man show in 1961. Canetti uses his drawing to communicate a sense of personal identification with the subject matter he is drawing. The drawings are not self-consciously art, but are, rather, an expression of a sense of self. The drawings are the drawings of a self. The drawings, with their heavy chiaroscuro and the black outline of the face, become a self-portrait, a self-portrait of the artist as a person, an individual with a face. The drawing is a self-portrait of the artist as a person, but one which is also a self-portrait of the artist as an artist. The drawing is not self-consciously art, but is an expression of a self-portrait of the artist as an individual who can be seen as an artist. Canetti makes himself a self-portrait in a sense that he is a person, and not a symbol. The drawing is not a self-portrait of the artist as a person, but is a self-portrait of the artist as an individual who can be seen as an artist. The drawing is a self-portrait of the artist as an individual who can be seen as an artist. The drawing is not self-consciously art, but is, rather, an expression of a self-portrait of the artist as an individual who can be seen as an artist.
, and uses these as a basis for the detailed painting of facial features, ear shapes, eye shapes, and brows. The result is a highly abstracted, abstracted, quasi-abstracted painting which has a characteristically abstract quality, and which is, in the context of Canettis work, a very strong statement.
, but excludes the rest of the body in favor of the chest, stomach, hips and thighs. The subject is portrayed with great restraint and an undistracted ease of touch, although the work is playful and whimsical, and the sheer amount of detail in the work makes it seem almost pornographic. The body is depicted in a state of motion, and Canetti has created a painting that is almost pornographic in its attention to detail. The artists sense of humor is so strong that he seems to be mocking his own work as well as the seriousness of his subject matter.
