JF notes re: this work :
Capriccio, after Epitaph - [ from J.S. Bach BWV1080 –"in contrario motu" ]
The title of this painting, Capriccio, after Epitaph - conflates the architectural and musical definitions associated with the term ‘capriccio’ and developed as a response to it’s concurrent 2023 partner-canvas, Epitaph : Studio Threshold : [ B A C H ] —which depicts a singular brick among others extant in the interior threshold joining two rooms of my studi)o, imprinted with the letters of the early 20th C. Bach Brick Co., Chicago.
The ‘blue-line’ painted image of Capriccio, after Epitaph - Capriccio, after Epitaph - presents conjoined excerpts of bars 37 and 89, from JS Bach The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080 Canon per augmentationem in contrario motu, overlaid / set, in upside-down relation to each other.
Block-forms in darker hue designate ‘notes’ B, A, C, and H.
