Abstract

Aesthetic value is one of the important values in the study of fine arts, especially painting. This paper intends to examine the aesthetic value of Roby Dwi Antono entitled “The Colossus”. This paper is studied by qualitative method with form theory. The result of this paper is that the aesthetics of The Colossus are contained in the principles of its visual art. That is unity, balance, and unity. Unity in that painting draws in their line. The line in the painting tends to be conceptualized with smooth strokes and combined with several objects that become center of interest. The balance in the painting is sufficient easy to get caught for placing some object in the middle. The dominant effect on Colossus is in the contrasting colour. It has a contrasting colour with the background the back can make it the center attention. The form of Roby Dwi Antono's work is a transformation of the form representational to non-representational forms.
