         Lives and works in Ljubljana, Slovenia

         THE ARTIST ONLINE      www.natasamenart.com

         Natasa’s life is dedicated to art. She was born on February 4, 1968 in   maturity. There is a note of melancholy behind the exuberant display;
         Ljubljana, Slovenia. She learned the art of painting and techniques in   a mourning of the loss of childhood innocence, a regret for the trade
         the studio of the well known painter Savo Sovre.         of this painted utopia for a world far more complex. Dva ocesa, a
         Natasa Menart’s painted characters ask innocent, unanswerable   portrait, draws from Matisse’s The green Line and delicately details
         questions. The Last Circus, the culmination of a deeply explored theme,   a striking, slender- necked figure with solid volumes of color, boldly
         portrays circus performers peering at us with cocked heads and folded   juxtaposed against the dark lines of the accents and background. Taken
         hands, as curious and aware as we are of them. Menart greatly varies   as whole, these works fully realize the emotive capabilities of figure
         the scale of the scene s three figures, a mannerist move: the figure   and expression and present a unique artistic point of view, beautifully
         cease to read as separate entities, but as three stages of one character   illustrated. (Agora gallery, New York, USA)
