Artistic Direction's Advice
Art Gallery III Millennium
Inge Benz shows a mixed technique draw titled "O.T.". Benz's work even from the title is hermetical. The gestures recall Vedova's evolutions. References to the German Expressionism are very impressive, the strong strokes. This draw shines violence and this violence does not have anything in common with the lighting of feelings.
Benz has an hard stroke, severe, tight. The artist researchs supporting hers interior instinct that drives movement, unleashing it into total anarchy.
The desire to unleash hers kinetic energies and the one to represent those energies in a world that has lost the ability to control them and to drive them to build a human's society, agree into Benz's work.
