Ernesto Muñoz, Art Critic, AICA Chile

“Marcela Krause's artwork demonstrates a strong desire of the artist to address painting problems by using technical means, which by delivering their results to the viewer, make her a true creator in search of new experiences.

The long-awaited color in a rich range of grays and violets in unusual supports where the transparent material that plays with inks, makes us glimpse the threshold of ambitious searches of an artist who plays her role as such.

The waste of nucleated forms in different motifs appear to us in a parade of surprises of abstract games that grow a potential in a series of works.

This exhibition also takes us into the first moments of the artist's creation, which are a valuable antecedent, which present works of solid construction.

Marcela Krause does a commendable job that makes us feel that with her courage and creative strength she will occupy a prominent place in national art. "

“One of the most outstanding artists by the acute critic Elida Román from Diario el Comercio is Marcela Krause. Her proposal is an abstract polyptych worked on a plastic support that is related to the Japanese poems Haikú "

 

 

Jorge Bernuy, Art Critic, Peru

"Marcela Krause in" Surviving Poetry "violently expresses that more than a gesture, it is a frenzied attack that inflicts on the surface of the canvas from which a disintegrated reality is emerging without any premeditation, whose fragments are destroyed everywhere in open informality.

Her gesture has more liberatory catharsis. Figures or quasi-figures that result from violent brushstrokes made with the movement of their arms in a desperate attempt to conjure and destroy the urban landscape that is transmuted into open defiance of the three-dimensionality of space "

 

Pedro Labowitz, Art Critic, President AICA Chile

“An irregular panel of small black and white lithographic squares on colorless plastic material by Marcela Krause impresses favorably. Her work, spontaneous and abstract, has strength and rhythm in an irreproachable presentation "

 

 

Ennio Bucci, Art Critic, Chile

“The plastic work that Marcela Krause presents us is a work that is in the process of investigating handling new plastic supports; Hence, in the last period of his work, she experimented with plastics that replace the canvas on the frame, with this, she wants to propose a more pure and diaphanous universe, all in view of the spectator.

Her works with ink and enamel techniques, suggesting abstract forms of intense color; violets, blues, oranges and yellows are present in its color palette.

Marcela's work is innovative because it seeks to express itself with new materials and textures, inviting the viewer to explore the senses. "

 

 

Cecilia Valdés Urrutia, Art Critic Diario El Mercurio, Chile

“One of the greatest complexities of Chilean artist research has been find special inks that can leave texture on the plastic support.

Work with a great sense of color. Her proposal also contains a clear aesthetic stance that seeks truths ”.
