Description
The work "Still Life Woman with mandolina - 1918 "by María Blanchard is a splendid example of the mastery of this artist in the representation of reality through a cubist prism. Blanchard, born in 1881 in a family of a family of artists, became a Significant figure of modern art in Spain, being one of the few women associated with this movement in its time.
Observing "Still Life Woman with mandolin ", a complex relationship is perceived between the object and the human figure that occurs in the work. The woman, portrayed in profile, seems to integrate with the environment in which she is found. This type of disposition is characteristic of Cubism , where the figures are broken down into planes and facets that defy the conventional perception of space and perspective. creating a dialogue between the musical and the visual.
The colors used by Blanchard are subtle and terrible, predominantly ocher tones, brown and some gray nuances that provide a nostalgic air to the composition. This palette, away from the vibrant colors that characterize other currents, reinforces the emotional depth of the work. The simplicity of colors allows the viewer to focus on the form and structure, achieving an almost meditative experience. In addition, the different color planes contribute to the three -dimensionality of the painting, An essential characteristic of Cubism that Blanchard dominates with mastery.
Another notable aspect is the way Blanchard presents the space. Like other Cubist artists, she challenges the notion of a homogeneous background, creating a fragmented and dynamic environment where space becomes a container full of meanings. Women and mandolin seem to float in this environment, suggesting a connection between the interior and the exterior, the tangible and the intangible.
The lack of detail in certain elements of the figure suggests that Blanchard seeks a more than a literal representation. The woman is not just a portrayed subject; It is an evocation of female experience in an artistic context that, at many times, has been dominated by men. When concentrating attention on mandolin as a symbol, Blanchard also establishes a parallel between music and art, raising both at the same level of creative expression.
In summary, "Still Life Woman with mandolin "is erected as a deep investigation into the intersection between the object and the figure, music and painting, and the personal and the universal. María Blanchard, through this work, not only reaffirms its place in the movement Cubist, but also invites the viewer to an introspective trip through the contemplation and interpretation of the forms. in the contemporary art dialogue.
