Description
Alma Redlinger was an avant-garde Romanian painter and illustrator, and an important figure within the group of women artists belonging to the Maxy school of art, along with Eva Cerbu and Yvonne Hasan. For seven decades, Alma Redlinger was a consistent voice whose sobriety was devoid of complacency in its vitality. In painting, drawing or collage, her dynamic compositions epitomised her predilect topics – still life, the feminine portrait and flowers. If in her earlier works, a cubist intuition prevailed, from the 1970s the artist was engaging in a synthesis of cubist shapes, transgressing it with plastic effects and transparencies. Her bold alternations of forms and shapes find their rhythm, suggesting a unity of the space in our reality. The recurring motif of a reinterpreted odalisque in the atelier constructs one of the most tranquil scenes, in opposition with the colour patches and brush strokes that also give the work its relief. Giving the viewer the undisturbed feeling that everything falls in its place, the image remains in the memory long after it is seen.
