Composition V

'Composition V,' by David Mladjovic, Screen Print

This 'Composition V' is a 20" x 27" screen print by artist, David Mladjovic, depicts an abstract composition of dynamic fields of color in blue and red forms in black, white, gray and ochre. Mladjovic created the composition by using old drawings and a transfer paper silkscreen method.

"To compose, or to put one next to the other, is the arrangement of parts in a whole composition. Personally, the composition as a term in fine arts notes the structure that they create together in an artistic element in their interrelation. Our admiration for the composition is the result of a long process of adjustment, which has been for years and for reasons that very often have nothing to do with art. Picture created her viewer. It's a conventional relationship. The composition as a style is grounded on the theory of neoplasticism or abstraction of art and the reduction of it to as few factors as possible. The composition for me is aimed at bringing the truth closer to the foundations of things around us."--David Mladjovic
