'Girl Running on a Balcony' 1912 -- oil on canvas |
This particular piece of art is a kinesthetic study of a figure in motion. Mimicking the pointillist technique, Balla has not mixed the non-primary colors, but creates them by painting contrasting dots in close contact to one another. This technique is repeated throughout the picture's surface. The artwork does not have a central point of focus. It appears to be continuing outside the canvas to the spectator’s space, emphasizing the continuous character of the girl’s motion.
