Maya Kulenovic Paintings
Bosnian, b. 1975
Maya Kulenovic (1975 Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina) lives and works in
Toronto Canada.
Maya Kulenovic's artistic development, as a painter working with
representational imagery, has followed a path echoing that of art history:
as it has shaped its own story and seen its potentials redefined.
Her inspirations range from Rembrandt to 19th century daguerreotype
photography, images from damaged motion pictures, Greek sculptures, Roman
death masks, ancient Middle Eastern architecture, early American
documentary photography and film, East Asian ink paintings, Leonardo’s
drawings, Goya's prints, Turner's skies, the photographs of Eugène Atget
and Margaret Bourke-White, and 20th Century painters Francis Bacon, Lucian
Freud, Paula Rego, and Marlene Dumas.
From these she has forged a unique repertoire described as 'unlike the work
of any other artist of her generation.'

AT THE BEACH - Modern Women Portrait, Contemporary Figurative Painting
By Marzena Ślusarczyk
Located in Salzburg, AT
The patient waiting for Bresson's “decisive moment” characterizes the pictures of the young Polish painter Marzena Slusarczyk. The compositions of her works have the magic of a successful photography. Often with a powerful neckline, they use expressive foreshortened perspectives and unusual versions and they take us into an intimate dimension of the women portrayed.
However, Slusarczyk's pictures are mainly emotions captured on canvas, and this is what makes her works so special. The women she paints perform normal, banal activities in everyday life. But they are the key to reading the feelings of the female figures lost in thought. The lack of clarity in the artist's pictures allows the viewer to make their own interpretations. As the painter herself emphasizes, the aim of playing with the audience is to awaken the viewer's imagination and imagination so that they notice the seemingly invisible.
This mystery and the unspoken are reminiscent of the paintings by Michelangelo Caravaggio...
