INTRODUCTION

Lili Maglione's new collection of paintings has been inspired by aubergine and its variations, as well as colors that may be a compliment or perhaps a contrast.

New York artist, Lili Maglione, has won numerous awards and her work has been shown in many galleries , museums, and universities, including The Parrish Museum, The Heckscher Museum, and The Lafayette Museum of Art and she has been named "Woman of Distinction" by Distinction Magazine. Her work is in the collections of many prominent people and corporations including Elizabeth Taylor, Thomas Kellaway, Publisher of American Art Review Magazine; The Coca Cola Corporation; and Weight Watchers Inc. among others around the country and abroad.

Maglione grew up on Long Island and studied in New York City at The Art Students League of N.Y., The Traphagen School of Art and Design, and also at Cadenabbia, Italy. She studied life drawing from the late Victor Perard and still life under the late Robert Brachman when he was teaching at The League. She also attended classes at NYU.

Ruth Tucker, Critic, Former Executive and Curator, Guggenheim Museum, NYC stated: "Maglione's expressions convey command, dynamism, and strength. These powerful and compelling paintings evoke sentiment and raw emotion as Maglione expresses her inner psyche and personal thoughts and dreams. Lili Maglione's paintings possess the power to bring the viewer to a standstill with it's arresting use of viseral qualities. Tracing the very soul of the artist seeping out onto the canvas, these poignant abstractions are filled with a breathtaking intensity."
