There\u2019s always a silent moment with the artist, a transit and then a word\u2026 an observance that goes uo in a bit\u2026 All this stays afloat and it is that exactly the moment between her and the white canvas, between somethingness and nothingness between the invisible and the shape, creator and the creature, between the prayer and the awaitning there is hope! There are internal moanings, unexpected lightnings of artistic character that announce the release of the rain as soils\u2019 damper covered above with nameless paints till the first rain droplets come down full of weight and gifts of big events, lights and unseen colours earlier giving the spirit a big leap singing over the canvas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole artistic action of Luljeta Mu\u00e7aj, is a long awaited search as well as dynamic. Painting is like an inner search, a prayer received under the rain as a blessing and an answer\u2026 The whole journey of the author seems as a clasica way of a path of struggles of the artist and the stains on the paintings are streams of the artistic body and more\u2026 in all stations of life an iconic resemblance, its life, fear, doubt, motherland, identity, scream, cheers, hope\u2026 From the chromatic material mass that the artistic creation has it resembles the urgent need to find the third path in art, especially the one beyon the world war two\u2026 and as the wars are spiritual voids to be filled only from within and are damped from above in the long wait to the final destination, the vehicle for the journey is of HOPE brand. In both sides of the corridor of this journey, Luljeta Mu\u00e7aj\u2019s exhibit becomes a great building where from its tall walls you experience with the artist the journey together in the ark that promises a land for all\u2026 a land with love. With an abstract language, that she knows very well, she comes out from a clasical painter\u2019s dress with intelectual whit that doesn\u2019t speak words of broken meanings. Free and unlimited speech is the one of depth and sharp instinct, capable of transcending beyond the skinof materiality and the sensitivity that is born from it in the neatest wave of the feeling\u2026 Paintings of Luljeta Mu\u00e7aj present what Marcel Duchamp was signing of in the 1920-s\u2026 the tractate of the Infrathin\u2019s \u201cto feel\u201d, what\u2019s within and here, as when firt droplets of rain brake loose on the dry soil, feeling the smell of the damp earth, gravity, vibrations of the surface, the body of the artistic creation itself. Taste of hope\u2026 Rain as the defining element, \u201cartist as a drop of rain\u201d, present methaforically the subject that carries the character side of the hope born from Luljeta\u2019s work, that is used by the author as a transit element\u2026 the follower of the essence of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, in the paintings of Luljeta youll feel the fragrance, depth of her eye\u2019s iris, the origin of her painting remains a sight into the horisons of hope\u2026!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curatorial narrative by<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fatmir Juka Painter, Arts Historian, curator New York, 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-1020x1360.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11103\" width=\"725\" height=\"966\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-632x843.jpg 632w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-768x1024.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-600x800.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3288-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 725px) 100vw, 725px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reception for the Artist on Sunday, October 20th from 6 pm What happens if it rains&#8230;?-HOPE There is a famous movie, a musicle, &#8220;Singing in the rain\u2026&#8221;, on 2007 declared as one of the most important masterpieces of artistic cinematography of the XX century in the US and what\u2019s very interesting\u2026 this movie belongs to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11102,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[5,3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11101"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11101"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11101\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11106,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11101\/revisions\/11106"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
