The
importance of a portrait lies in its artistic expression; this
is the only way that it will transcend as a work of art. Its “likeness” only doesn’t
make it significant if it doesn’t transmit the spirit
and soul of the artist, manifested through the figure.
On one occasion, after finishing a
portrait, the model asked Picasso: “Is that me?”, to
which the artist responded: “No, it’s me”.
Ana Candioti can be placed within
Realism, far from Naturalism, or mere illustration. In
her portraits, she takes the risk of finding her own
voice, through her own spirit, forging and pouring in
her works the nature and expression of the subject depicted.
With solid draftsmanship and sensitive,
meditated color, her works transcend as paintings,
beyond the likeness, and that is what will make them
permanent.
