Alterrealism - A Collection by Uba Owl

By George A. McNeil

Uba Owl is a founding member of a new interdisciplinary art movement, Alterrealism.Passionate about political and social issues, she often touches these subjects in her art. Uba Owl's painting's remarkable achievement, realized through her talent with color and line, is the creation of a sustained emotional effect despite multiple narrative tensions. There is a sense of quiet power, of emergence and beginnings, of wisdom against an anticipated struggle. This is a bold departure from much male-dominated Western art, which often chooses a concrete narrative image while creating sub-surface ambiguities of emotion. It is a painting of intuition itself, succeeding in the far more difficult and demanding task of capturing a way of feeling.This book, "Alterrealism - A Collection by Uba Owl" is a first foray into the world of Alterrealism, a movement that is in its infancy, waiting for others to shape its destiny.
