Articoli correlati a Rafal Olbinksi Women: Motifs And Variations
At once both controversial and classical, Rafal Olbinski has built a career around examining the mystery of women. His paintings depict a woman who is both distant and effortlessly available. In this first publication of his paintings, Olbinski creates a world that seeks to celebrate the secrets of women without destroying their mystery.
Best know for his depictions of women, this book explores Olbinski's unique perspective on such classic figures as Salome and Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, to contemporary women and their place in today's world.
Woman, and man's struggle to understand her, is a theme running throughout Olbinski's paintings and is aptly examined in Matthew Gurewitsch's essay. Olbinski's world is revealed through his women and the metaphors he creates - "Women as Landscape, Woman as Interior," "Eve/Venus" - and the power of his paintings shine through the idea that woman cannot be objectified or defined by merely one thing. His evolution as an artist is brought out by an interview with Lawrence Weschler who explores Olbinski's inspiration, how his past is always present in his work, and how that interpretation lends itself to his paintings.
