Painting In Another Dimension

With Admiration and Affection For Ana

“ Since the human being
was able to plow the Earth,
he wanted to reflect his world
on caves and walls,
he painted in Altamira
and in faraway regions
leaving there his trace
which time will not erase
that time and distance
will preserve.

Your brush and spatula
with magical dimensions
leave beings
with hoisting myths,
with lights and shadows
of a calm concert
of faraway stars,
your painting is divergent,
it has a diamond light
of a different cosmos
of a world of hope.
Through your art,
you leave footprints
that do not fade
and the world of tomorrow
will always remember you
because your brush and your spatula
have an angel
they are light and joy,
they are everlasting marks,
they are tomorrow’s glory”

José Rivera M.


	Ana Wien is exhibiting individually today for the first time. She shows her collection of fantastic drawings of an admirable originality. Figures crossing between women, flowers and fruits, made with watercolors, inks and varnishes, obtaining beautiful, eminently plastic textures. Her figures do not narrate stories; they simply present themselves with art’s vestment, a very interesting art that announces the total fulfillment of a real painter. Ana shows a personality of great creative originality, even rebellious, inventor of a world of original figures. They are souls that more than being seen, are implied in their own world of color. The artist gives us a valuable work in its depth and realization. Manuel de la Cruz Gonzalez Lujan. February 16th, 1979 National Museum	BLACK MAGIC
	Ana Wien has been exclusively trained under the tutelage of the Maestro Manuel de la Cruz Gonzalez to whom she owes great part of the independence with which she treats the form. However, the artist expresses her own subjectivity in this series of paintings she is exhibiting, where she masters the graphic element and the arabesque of the Indian ink merges or lives the life of the color. In her, most of all, painting is rhythm and it seems that, when releasing it it has life of its own, crystallizing in figures that, in their abstraction, remind us of human beings or groups of people next to flowers, fish, birds and masks. In this exhibition Ana Wien shares with us, through her art, the aesthetics of her half real and half imaginary world. Francisco Amighetti February 16 th, 1979 National Museum	THE VIRTUES
	In this second exhibition, Mrs. Ana Wien continues unwrapping her half real, half fantastic personal world, introspective and suggestive at the same time. One of the characteristics that best define her work is the flow of her imagination that runs spontaneously. The artist uses the color stains and her somehow flamigerous brush strokes contrast with rectilinear graphic elements that structure the space and calm the tumult of its shapes.
