Recognition

Reviews & Press

Words from critics, curators, and publications about Evelyn Walg's work.

"In her paintings Walg creates an exciting choreographic-human fabric that brings together individuals with no identity and gives them power, beauty and weight. There is 'unity and individualism' or if we prefer, the protest of the lonely people who yearn for connection, love, recognition and social status. Walg creates and forms endless human combination, motion, beauty, magic and creative events. It is a process of meticulous work that get ceremonial expression, the 'little people' that gather in the artist's studio, and only by grouping them they get meaning and expression."

Shimshon Crystal

"...and while words like 'interesting' and 'unusual' are often the kiss of death when used as compliments, they speak very well of Walg's art. When you walk away from 'people in motion' you realize you have just seen something truly special."

Carl Hoffman

Jerusalem Post

"I met Evelyn Walg as one of my painting students, at The Miami Art League in the year 2006. At that time she surprised me with her style, she has an open minded imagination. She has a sense that runs from reality to magic, humorous details all in beautiful colors and heavy textures. She keeps alive her creativity and said that her work gets a true involvement in her work. It could be a ceremonial expression, a kind of private ongoing ritual. It deals with details, she gives meaning to the 'little people' creating the impression that they live on the canvas, they transmit happiness and joy of life. It is a process of meticulous work and the result is that her paintings give you the feeling that you have seen something truly special."
