Avraham Eilat

From the series FORCES, graphite on paper,  50x70 cm., 1976

Eilat once said to describe his work, that first he creates chaos and than he starts bringing order into it. This drawing is a clear manifestation of that statement. From top to bottom: first he drew expressive lines and created chaos, then using an eraser, he started diffusing the scattered lines, like brightening the picture for us, the viewers, in the maelstrom. The power to create chaos and then order was given to two, one of them is art.
