Margarita Deleuze  Testimonials


"We were impressed by the character and quality of your work."

Susan Fisher Sterling
Deputy Director for Art and Programs - Chief Curator. National Museum of Women in the Arts.

"Margarita Deleuze is a realist artist whose treatment of the equestrian theme is characterized by its cleanliness and effect. In her horse paintings, they render evidence of her profound direct knowledge of the animals and their world; the artist molds the poetry of the perfection of form and movement proper of the noble animal. Together with that type of work and with the same cleanliness, Deleuze now overturns herself to the paintings of fruits and flowers, which she executes with as much realism as color."

Armando Alvarez Bravo
Art Critic the Miami Herald

“Deleuze was a housewife before she dedicated herself to her art. She studied in Venezuela, raised children and loved sports. After a back injury and several surgeries she was forced to slow down. She then began to put her full attention on her art. Her work is realistic and her favorite subjects are her beloved horses, which she paints with oils. If she can’t ride them, she’ll paint them.”

“The Venezuelan Margarita Deleuze is considered a realist artist, a tendency that has taken her to capture situations that the common thinking being rejects, the tenderness that emanates from the animals, specially horses, who, like she affirms; have feelings, suffer and are happy like us; these qualities are prominent in her work.”

"You have an impressive ability at depicting the horse and its feelings- very dramatic."

"The most inspired verses have been written in honor of the horse and his gestures have been moulded in the plastic arts, because the horse is harmony, sensitivity, courage and gracefulness. He represents nobility, gallantry and bravery. Inseparable friend of man throughout history, hero like him in the exploits of independence, he has known how to live and die by his side. Since childhood Margarita Deleuze has felt these subtle threads that unite us to these handsome animals and as she grew up she felt the need to honor with her talent those who were her playmates. With maturity Margarita has entrusted her great conditions of mastery, balance and sensibleness. Her art has left adolescence but retains the purity and ingenuousness of her childhood, to delight us with these samples in which we perceive the humid look , the velvet nose, the warm skin, of those that have left unerasable memories in a flowery corner of our hearts."

"Once more her magnificent style could reflect with love and exquisite care of detail her beloved equines, in which she manifests the passion that has consumed her since childhood. The amazon continues riding in her memories and moulds on canvas all her experiences."
