If music codified its values, why couldn\u2019t the visual arts do the same? \u00bb (Marc Collet, \u201cO domi\u0301nio musical de Soto\u201d, en Soto [exhibition catalog] (Paris: Jeu de Paume, 1998).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"6thsn-0-0\">Soto is a recognised plastic artist and one of the most important and generous of the 20th century. His work is full of sensitivity, serenity, humility and curiosity.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Likewise, music, movement and street art are constant themes in Soto&#8217;s work. Present in the artist&#8217;s first series, <em>\u00c9tude pour une s\u00e9rie<\/em> (1952-53), which have been the inspiration for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malimbus.com\/en\/portfolio\/plastic-artist\/\">Soto I<\/a> and II tapestries.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"7n2pi-0-0\">Serial music is part of this Soto collection. From the serial idea Soto chose 8 colours to transfer these codes to painting. Thus: 3 primary, 3 secondary, black and white.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"8acs0-0-0\">The Soto II tapestry is inspired by a work done with lacquer on wood.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"8heud-0-0\">Fiber art uses textiles and in this case cotton ropes. Soto II tapestry assemble with coloured ropes: ecru, white, yellow, red and brick red.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"9jsqq-0-0\">The <strong>interpretation of textile art<\/strong> is horizontal dots that play with color and shape.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"3qs0n-0-0\">The cross knot is the protagonist of this piece. Horizontal knotted interweaves colours and lines in a clean and simple way.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-offset-key=\"9hrk5-0-0\">Learning from the extensive work of the plastic artist Soto is a way to grow as an artist.
