The English translation of the text is:
The most recent works by the painter and world citizen Judith Stahl-Schidlowsky, born in Chile, shows clear and bright colours in big movement. In Mutability , the artist leaves behind strong gestures that she radically reduces with black, white and some tones in bright blue. The composition steps completely in the background, to give place to a spontaneous, immediate and uninhibited expression.
In Celestial dancers this strong energy is likewise noticeable in the act of painting, still it is executed with great intent. The bright blue field does not fill the frame, but liberates a black colour along the borders, which makes the blue hover. From the background a deep blue steps forward like a dancer, while the black and white structures jump into the foreground. Here the artist is a careful choreographer of very differentiated and fascinating flows of movement.
Orient on the other hand, calms down the dynamics. Here Stahl-Schidlowsky places a shaped turquoise-green field of colour on top of a blue one, both of which flow horizontally. Yellow and orange sprinklings playfully vitalize the dense colour tones.
The three paintings thus act on the observer quite differently, in each one, however, the artist impresses with her spontaneous, direct and powerful painting, expressed in unrestrained, as well as consciously arranged compositions.
