Planar Constructions

Miss Zahara Schatz has found a new technique in planar constructions thereby giving them their due place in the realm of art, and undoubtedly, introducing a new epoch in its history.

This new medium which she employs shows that there is a foreknowledge of feelings and thoughts which can be best expressed only through planar constructions.

Neither art, nor music, nor sculpture can express their hidden charm.

Sometimes the half-formulated emotions and sensations, the poetry of poignant similarities, contrasts and symbols — can be given a more definite form by a line, a curve, or a light touch of colored dust here or there placed under plastic as under a veil, thus creating a keen sense of beauty.

This synthesis creates a symphony of psychological emotions which does not limit or exhaust the images - it enhances and creates new ones beyond the given.

Often some details, seemingly insignificant in themselves, vibrate more intensely than the central motif itself, as if in them were hidden the key to the whole.

There is here a rich variety of effects, a complexity ofdetails always new and poignant — an irresistable tenderness gleaming fantastically and vaguely through multicolored Aopals.
