| For example, the Ndebele images of objects such as airplanes, electric pylons, lamp posts, telephones, and Western homes are highly geometricized. The second type of sketch after the old masters, by far the most numerous, is the Benton-like "analysis," whereby the figures of a Rubens or a Greco are progressively geometricized, first transformed into cubic men (one thinks of the little schematic mannequins in Durer's studies of proportion), then into abstract, regular volumes (the cones, spheres, and cylinders of nineteenth-century academic teaching), then into a forest of arcs. |
