Suite indienne 1981

Charles Bezie’s 'Suite indienne' is a geometric symphony, rendered with a pointillist touch. I can imagine Bezie, armed with his brush, carefully building up these images, dot by dot, a meditative process of layering and accumulation. It reminds me a little of the way Agnes Martin worked. There's something about that grid, you know? Those hard lines against the soft fade of color, a real dance between control and freedom. I wonder what he was listening to when he made this? The title suggests a far-off place filtered through a very particular lens. I can see it as a kind of abstraction, where the essence of a place is distilled into these shapes and patterns. And maybe that's what art is, right? It's not just what we see, but how we see it, and what we bring to it. Bezie lays the groundwork, then we get to finish the piece.
