Krieg paints older women as beautifully complete nudes

Francien Krieg lives and works in the centre of holland.. Krieg paints older women as beautifully complete nudes. She acknowledges the marks time has fabricated upon the physical body and focuses our attention to a place where physical and spiritual beauty intersect. Imagining a globe in which societal pressures lift and current narratives around physicality and the female person torso augment. When viewing Francien'due south nudes it is difficult not to feel moved by their unflinching realism and stark depiction of female dazzler.

Equally Alan Katz explains, "It is somewhat anticipated that Krieg has suffered negative reactions to her piece of work, as on the surface one might call up she was portraying elderly women without respect. But Krieg is really commenting on dazzler in much the same style as Sam Peckinpah was commenting on violence through his movies. Man'southward platonic view of young female person beauty does get shattered with historic period, merely something else takes identify of more importance…the realisation that once "idealized" dazzler is gone, the innate beauty of spirit has the potential to create an outer beauty with a greater depth. Krieg'southward personal vision is consistent and committed. She expresses herself through her art in means that requite her a unique point of view on the human condition." ~ @Francien Krieg
