The artwork titled “Form over River,” created by Graham Sutherland in 1972, belongs to the Surrealism art movement and is categorized within the figurative genre.
The artwork presents an abstract, surreal composition dominated by organic, flowing forms depicted in a combination of green, yellow, white, and brown tones. The central motif appears to be a fantastical, intertwined shape that evokes the sense of a dynamic flow, reminiscent of a river or natural landscape. The composition is intricate and layered, with various surreal elements merging into an enigmatic, almost dream-like scene. The overall texture and color palette contribute to a vivid and engaging visual experience, characteristic of the Surrealist movement’s emphasis on imaginative and symbolic imagery.
