About Sheila Benow: The Woodstock Press writes of her:
It is only necessary to observe her work to realize that Sheila
Benow’s success in Europe is founded on her genuine talents. Her landscapes are superlatively
lovely. Many of her etchings, some
unusually textured, are miniature yet give the eye a sense of vast
expanse. It’s an incredible feat, but
it stems from her intensely moving preoccupation with nature in all its
myriad forms and moods. Today her work
is muted and invokes through delicacy
of tints, results that dazzle the eye.
Her landscapes appear to transfigure matter into poetry. Her etchings attest to the enormous skill
she has acquired in this medium, a medium that gives her the opportunity to express
with greater strength the depiction of landscape while retaining an
evanescent beauty. The renown she
received in the last years she has lived and worked in Germany is phenomenal. That her work merits the highest encomiums,
that it bears all the rare imprint of genius, that its appeal is immediately
and profoundly moving, are beyond doubt.
Nevertheless for an unknown American to break down the barriers of
language in an alien land, and achieve such spectacular recognition, is a
triumph infrequently enjoyed. |
