Posture-Pine Tree

Gulistan’s paintings have both the overall idea of super realism and the presentation of realistic details. Just like the Magic Movies in Hollywood, they give people a wonderful feeling of reality and fantasy. Painters are good at putting different kinds of things existing in different time and space in the same picture. For example, they put the horse of Lang shining on the classical furniture, and juxtapose the flowers and birds of the Song Dynasty with the ancient Greek statues, so as to create the artistic tension effect of “twisting irrelevant things together” similar to the metaphor in the English metaphysical poetry. Another characteristic of her paintings is the quiet atmosphere and elegant color, which may be related to the theme of still life antiques, but perhaps more revealed is the painter’s character and interest.

姿态系列－中国玩偶

Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画既有超写实的整体构思，又有写实的细节呈现，就像好莱坞的魔幻影片一样，给人以一种亦真亦幻的奇妙感觉。画家善于把现实中存在于不同时空里的不同类别的事物放置在同一个画面里，例如把郎世宁的马放在古典家具上，把宋人花鸟与古希腊雕像并置，从而营造出类似英国玄学诗中的奇喻那样“把不相干的事物强扭在一起”的艺术张力效果。其作品的另一特点是气氛的静谧，色彩的淡雅，这也许与题材多为静物古董有关，但也许更多透露的是画家的性格和趣味。
