| description:
Galerie-V will present, during the entire month of November, the most recent series of paintings by the Artist Magali Cadieux. Critics are highly praising this showcase as Magali's best works to date. The paintings are powerful, a continuation of artworks portraying women as powerful.
"BEAUTY EQUALS EMPOWERMENT in the paintings of Magali Cadieux.
Overwhelmingly, Art history filters feminine beauty through the distorting lens of the Male Gaze.
However, certain contemporary women artist such as Lisa Yuskavage and more recently canadian artist Magali Cadieux, provide us with a new perspective on this time-honored subject. But while Yuskavage's takeoffs of centerfold stereotypes are somewhat ironic, Cadieux paints post-feminist celebrations of unabashed glamour that posit seductiveness as an empowering trait rather than a symptom of sexual exploitation.
Her women are not only physically beautiful but also imposing, even monumental, projecting a sense of power and prowess that is both engaging and inspiring."
