Paintings embodied the concept of isolation in plastic art

Sarah Abdin

Today, the world lives in a compulsory isolation imposed by the spread of the Coruna virus in most countries of the world. Until this moment, there is no solution available to control its spread except the house isolation, which was accompanied by the emergence of a new term that is "social divergence." Serum for that virus that completely isolated humans.

In plastic art there are many artists whose human isolation has emerged as a major imperative in their paintings. Psychologists define isolation as a condition in which the mind becomes far from constant stimuli, realizing itself, the moment when creativity thrives. Here is an attempt to restore some paintings that may come into contact with the present human isolation.

"Early Sunday morning"
American artist Edward Hopper was born in 1882 and died in 1967, and he witnessed various global changes, transforming America into a new world that is ravaged by the machine, and in which people feel alienated from life and nature.

Huber chose to express his feelings from the material world’s domination of human life, so no human groups or relationships appear in his paintings, but individuals in a flat magical world without a clear narrative tale, in a way that allows the spectator to freely create his own story.

In his painting, "Early Sunday morning," Hopper looks forward to the vacuum the world is currently experiencing in all countries. Places that were once bustling with people are completely empty, as are his famous paintings.

Hopper said in an interview that the word "Sunday" was not part of the title of the painting, but someone added it. We can now delete the word again, to resemble the board all the mornings around the world at the time of the invasion of Corona.

Gray and Gold
John Roger Cox (1915-1990) is considered one of the signs of the American realistic art scene. He used to photograph the scenes of the American West through a fictional vision that focuses on the small details of American landscapes such as the details of wheat fields and the clouds of the sky.

The "Gray and Gold" painting is one of Cox's most famous works, and has been found in the Cleveland Museum of Art since 1943, and was drawn in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor and the entry of the United States into World War II.

The painting is inspired by American wheat fields, Indiana, the artist's hometown. At the front of the panel is the intersection of two dirt paths, as well as a phone column decorated with advertising posters. The road depicted in the panel is called "America's Crossroads" due to the intersection of the main highways between North, South, East and West. Most similar paintings to the post-Corona world in 2020.

"isolation"
One of the founders of the metaphysical art movement, the Italian artist Giorgio Di Quirico is known for his surrealistic paintings, in which he tries to mix icons of the modern world with old classical ideas.

In the isolation board one of his hybrids appears, lying on a scaffold, or a wooden board. His wondrous creature appears to be in a state of sadness confirmed by the exasperation of the head and the broken session, which may also indicate the being's wandering in his inner thoughts and his complete isolation from the desolate world around him.

Hybrids have been repeated in De Kerekou's paintings, as inspirations of metaphysical myths, the world of memory and imagination, but at the same time we can find in them today what resembles the condition of modern man in terms of pain, isolation and refraction.

"isolation"
The "isolation" painting belongs to the arts of Tajikistan, by contemporary artist Daler Uthmanov, and the painting shows a young man sitting on the floor of a dark room, watching the sunlight flooding him from the window. The isolation in this painting appears to be static spiritual isolation, and the young person's face does not appear with certain feelings, but the sitting position chosen by the artist reflects a state of calm and human reconciliation with isolation, and a state of meditation that can be interpreted as the enlightenment that we need to understand ourselves, brighten our minds and untangle the confused thoughts within Everyone from us.

"Arles bedroom"
Artist Vincent Van Gogh presented the "A Bedroom in Arles" painting in 1890, as Gogh lived a very tragic life, and most of his feelings and events embodied in his paintings, so the Arles bedroom painting can tell a lot about Van Gogh's life.

Van Gogh drew his room in five paintings, the first painting he executed with the oil ore and he was happy with it and wrote about it in a letter to his brother Theo saying, "Looking at the painting must relax the mind and imagination."

In this painting the colors appear shiny and bold, and it is a model of the change that occurred in the colors of Van Gogh during his stay in Arles and Saint-Remy. The most striking aspect of the painting is its strange, unrealistic perspective, during which Van Gogh rebelled against the traditional approach of classic Dutch artists. Artists can follow the approach of Van Gogh and paint their own rooms in the period when the entire world sits in homes.
