5/ Edward Said, On Late Style.
artist reaches this point – a kind of Archimedean point of the self – but those
who do experience the dissolution of barriers, the renunciation of rules and the
best in the expression of an internal liberty. Palestinian-American writer Edward
Said spent his last years researching different writers’ and composers’ late style,
trying to answer the question, is their respectable old age discernable in specific
stylistic qualities? His last book, On Late Style3, published posthumously, deals
with the later creations of different composers (Mozart, Beethoven, Richard
Strauss, Schoenberg) and writers (Jean Genet). Interpreting these pieces, Said
hypothesizes that it could have been expected that the old artist, as “clan elder”,
would practice wisdom and restraint, offer up “a new spirit of reconciliation and
serenity.”4 But contrary to expectations, Said’s interpretation points to the fact
that some works by old artists on the contrary contain elements of rebellion
and resistance, harboring an unsolvable contradiction. Said diagnoses a kind
of “exile” in the late style – exile from laws and conventions, an exile from the
familiar, safe style and into an adventure outside of time and place…”A Late Style
that involves a sort of deliberately unproductive productiveness”5 going against
what is offered and what is given.
Kandinsky, one of the forbears of abstract painting, combined dynamic gestures
with what he called “nameless emotions” – emotional nuances that cannot be
put into words, but only in complex pictorials clusters. One of the emotions he
defined in attempting to describe abstract painting’s suggestive dimension was
the dimension of “adventure” – expressed, according to Kandinsky, in a diagonal
upward and rightward motion within the rectangle of the painting. In his book
Point and Line to Plane he analyzes the paper’s rectangular “Basic Plane” and
the dynamics of the pictorial elements in it in relation to the emotions they
invoke. Kandinsky envisioned a painter cognizant of the connection between
the painting’s dynamics and specific moods, who could therefore control its
composition and channel it to his needs. And although his didactic plan never
fully materialized, he managed to imbue the language of abstract painting with the
suggestive momentum of adventure – an image relevant to the specific situation of
Selig Segal’s late painting.
Segal – the elegant and stylized designer and the conscious, minimalist sculptor
– seems to be a man who has left the body of knowledge of the skilled craftsman
and the rules under which he was educated behind him, entering a space of
unknown adventure beyond time and profession. He seems to belong to a select
few artists whose old age allows for internal liberty rather than a rehearsal of
imitation and reproduction mechanisms. The audacity of freedom and the ability
to arrive at it effortlessly imbue the later chapter of his work with a strength and
freshness immeasurable by such period brands as ‘Postmodernism’ or ‘the return
to painting’.
Segal began working in a specific point in his past, when he was imbued with the
values of abstract Modernism: for sources of inspiration, he gathered the work of
painters of his kind – the painters of American abstraction – whose work he knew
well from the four years he spent in New York: Jackson Pollock, Willem de Koning
and Robert Matherwell; as well as closer ones, such as Moshe Gershuni, Raffi
Lavie, Michael Gross and Avidgor Steimatzky (who also freed himself at old age
from Zaritsky’s heavy influence, creating an especially wonderful ‘late painting’
chapter). These are painters of the pictorial gesture, of dynamic momentum and
color fields, of sensuous tactility and well-present object-ness. Segal draws
inspiration from them and uses both the generous American gestures and the
Israeli excoriating scribbling and glowing void. He never loses his personal mix,
though, which veers between the refined and the savage, gambling between
absolute liberty and invisible boundaries.
Selig Segal: Beyond Time and ProfessionTali Tamir
77 Beyond Time and Profession-- Tali Tamir
“Selig Segal cares about ethics no less than he cares about aesthetics,”
ascertained Yigal Zalmona when writing about the groups of minimalist sculptures
that Segal Created in 80-1979. The austere minimalism and his desire for a naked
concreteness that reveals the characteristics of material and form, his avoidance
of any ornament or twist and his renouncement of color became what Zalmona
identified as “the central values of a moral conception that guides Segal’s work.”
As a designer specializing in Modern Judaica, Segal also stressed an economical,
straightforward line, a line of festive, serious simplicity. The same austere,
moral Segal whose guiding light is the “truth of matter” and who acknowledges
the arbitrariness of the chosen action, however, gazed at the Modernist ethos
from both ends and transformed the moral equation. Modernism’s duality –
simultaneously attracted to progress and futurism and longing for the primitive
and the native, acknowledging both austerity and expressivity – leads Segal to
view discipline and liberty as equal poles in one equation: diametric oppositions
of authentic gestures maintaining their connection to a basis of absolute internal
truth.
The later Segal, now in his late 70’s, continues to long for the “secrets of material
bare” as Zalmona put it; but the matter itself has been replaced: no longer wood,
paper or metal, but masonite, paint and pigment. Not dry, hard materials, but
rather moist, fluid ones. Not a solid object that offers resistance, but a flexible,
yielding mixture… Segal remains well within the confines of the abstract language.
He is also still true to a stock of recurring actions, still an avid Modernist in search
of a kernel of truth. But rather than surveying Modernism from the heights of
its disciplined purity, as he did before, Segal has opted in his later years for a
space of internal liberty with whose force he vacillates freely between momentous
pictorial associations, devoting himself to the one element that had been left out
of his works’ scope, namely color. The new pictorial period of grace that Segal
is enjoying after recuperating from a severe heart attack is blatantly colorful,
demanding its pound of color. If his minimalist sculpture was perceived as moral,
monochromatic and austere, his later painting can be identified as “wild, colorful,
sensuous…” But does that make it also ‘immoral’? If ‘morality’ is interpreted as
an unremitting demand of absolute truth, then Selig Segal’s later, colorful and
wild painting seems to actualize his moral way. Simultaneously, there is an
element of ‘breaking free’ in it, not only in its undeniable sensuality but also in its
undeniable refusal to take responsibility for any pictorial law, technique, style or
material practical. The platform here is not stretched, well-proportioned canvases
or pure white paper, but standard-issue smooth, white Formica tablets (200X100
cm. each). His painting utensils are rags, his hands, a spatula, sticks and some
brushes; sometimes Segal paints on the white Formica, sometimes he exposes
the masonite’s cheap, brown surface. Whatever the surface, though, he paints
urgently, with great joy, on anything that reads color and writes painting. He lays
color patches, placing or flinging them, etches, draws, spins, hops, moves and
trucks, leaves empty spaces, dots, blows commas, anoints, gathers up, dilutes,
touches, squeezes, releases – remaining fresh, quick and surprising in any
variation, acting as a homo ludens, gambling and taking a chance.
Many have written recently about the subject of the “late style” in the context of
the last chapters of the work of Michelangelo, Titian or Rembrandt. Speculation
over the omission of details in Michelangelo’s late sculpture, the technical and
pictorial freedom of -90 year-old Titan’s work and old Rembrandt’s philosophical
gaze on himself and his subjects have been the subject matter of many researches
on the connection between old age and artistic creativity. Martin Lindauer, who
wrote a book on the subject, described the late style of these masters as “intense,
economical, thick, freely executed, bold, rough, spontaneous, suggestive, skill and
effort not obvious… technique... impatient.”1 He opposes this to the youthful style,
which, contrary to its rebellious image, is on the contrary “refined, stylistic, skilled,
finicky… well formed, composed, follows rules, pictorially structured.”2 Not every
