Question

Vinc re In the drawing, sun, wheat, and the sower himself are enlarged, made more monumental. The house and e on the left have been eliminated, causing us to us more on the sower himself, whose stride is now tre wider and who seems more intent on his task. But it the clarity of van Gogh's line that is especially aston- ishing. Here we have a sort of anthology of line types: short and long, curved and straight, wide and narrow. Lines of each type seem to group themselves into bun- dles of 5 or 10, and each bundle seems to possess its own direction and flow, creating a sense of the tilled field's uneven but regular furrows. It is as if, wanting to represent his longing for the infinite, as it is contained at the moment of the genesis of life, sowing the field, van Gogh himself returns to the most fundamental element in art-line itself Thinking Thematically: See Art and the Passage of Time on myartslab.com Fig. 4-16 Oil on canva Collection Krölle

Explanation / Answer

Vincent Van Gogh is imprecise, emotionally charged, and almost chaotic. Vincent van Gogh works through heart and produces lines by his own hand. His painting are always a cry for anguish.

Sol Le Witts is precise, controlled, mathematically rigorous, logical and rationally organised. He works through mind and his lines are not produced by hand.
