Maria Teresa Hafford
Argentinean artist Maria Teresa Hafford
Embraced the action painting art movement
At first sight her work ,
characterized by a powerful emotional content,
strikes you asthe result
of a wild outburst of unleashed passion ,
the artist, faced to the blank canvass
allows strongimpetuousbrush strokes
drippings and smears
to flow from unconsciousness
in a feast of color and texture
But a carefulanalysis of each piece reveals
the brushof a gifted artist
in the careful distribution of bright colored plans
to counteractthechaos andprovide balance
to the final composition
in a perfect harmony of light, color and form.
