NATALINA REPINA     - Russia 

Her Biography

“Within the artistic research of Natalia Repina, the expressive plasticity of the represented subjects is attributable to a technical-executive mastery clearly visible in the pictorial application, capable of exploring new forms of nature. It is Nature itself that constitutes a fundamental interpretative impetus in Repina's art, with its typical inspirations of memory and its light and gentle tone.
The painting technique, with broad brushstrokes marked by the meticulousness of the nuances, appears refined, bearing subtle and delightful color transitions free from contrasts and chromatic oppositions. Rather, there reigns an atmosphere of extraordinary compositional balance in the canvases painted by Natalia Repina, which reveal a boundless love for artistic experimentation and inner expression.
The harmony of forms and colors fits well with the representative need for lyrical sign-making, a relevant characteristic in defining the modus operandi of the artist originally from St. Petersburg.
In her works, one can trace the lesson of great masters of the past and illustrious names in art such as Cézanne and Italian Magical Realism, with inevitable influences from Russian painting movements that also convey the unforgettable impressions of the heart.”
Dr. Sabrina Falzone, Art Critic and Historian

“Natalia Repina aims to transfer impressions of real, multidimensional life onto the two-dimensional canvas with its relative limitations and advantages, which allow the soul’s life to be rendered forever, with the help of colors and forms. It can be said that the constant reference to reality is the main source, an effective impulse for the poetic transformation of everything the individual sees. In fact, this is the main characteristic of the artist.”
Prof. Anatoly Dmitrenko, Art critic and historian, museologist
“Natalia Repina, an artist rich in international experience, remains faithful to the need to paint vision according to the canons of figurative art, continuing to think of Art as creation and not as chaos, practicing it as the production of forms, not as laceration, a choice that is not for everyone, because it implies rules and duties both towards nature and towards anatomy. Rules that the artist has achieved through study and the sacrifice of practice, a more difficult but more rewarding choice, a choice that follows a tradition, pushing art into the heart of debate and into the ability of those who have been able to insert into their work soul, character, and light capable of giving quality and history to representation.”
Art critic Giorgio Falossi.

“Female sensuality finds full expression in the nudes of Natalia Repina, an artist who takes great care with the aspect of introspection and intimacy.
Her works are permeated by a remarkable aesthetic research, highlighted by the elegance of the line, which places her at an extremely high artistic level.”
Prof. Claudio Lepri, art critic
