A Different Kind of Art
Jesús-Rafael Soto is a Venezuelan artist whose work is referred to as Kinetic, which refers to the suggestion of motion produced by objects laid out in a certain arrangement. It is clearly a form of modern art. I found little in the way of samples of his work but what I saw was appealing. His art, as can be seen in the sample here, is also referred to as "geometric."
My second reading today discussed not an artist but the website of an art aficionado who hosts a web site on the art of Leonardo Da Vinci. He claims that a hidden Holy Grail is visible in a restored version of the "Last Supper." It makes for interesting reading.
