Georges Mazilu’s La femme jardin painting at Turner Carroll Gallery in Santa Fe encompasses so many fascinating attributes of his style. The female figure, or “Madonna”, as Mazilu says, has the most beautifully painted face. Mazilu has painted her face with great attention to detail and realism.
One of the things Mazilu is most known for stylistically is his combination of abstraction and realism within his figurative paintings. Sometimes, this combination meshes to look like surrealism, and in this case, that surrealistic tendency is certainly apparent.
The remarkably unique aspect of Mazilu’s “La femme jardin” painting within his oeuvre is its distinctive symmetry. If you look at other female Madonna images Mazilu has painted, you’ll see that the figure frequently looks to one side or down on the diagonal. Rarely has Mazilu painted a figure with such a fully frontal pose. Likewise, each side of the female figure’s body and hair ornamentation is perfectly symmetrical. It is as if Mazilu wanted his “La femme jardin” to become his artistic statement of beauty in symmetry. Clearly, “La femme jardin” is a highly significant work in Georges Mazilu’s artistic career.
