At the Armory Show, Fantasy-Coded Paintings Offer Escapism in Soft Focus Annie Armstrong September 5, 2024
"At New York-based Fredericks & Freiser’s booth, London-born Maria Calandra aims to challenge and distort what viewers expect out of traditional landscape painting. On view is her work June’s Rose Bush (McGolrick Park, Brooklyn, New York), which takes a floral painting and effectively puts it in a blender. Her practice is dedicated to reconnecting viewers with nature, and questioning why society has become more detached from its sublime power. Calandra paints from the classically pastoral views from the South of France, the Grand Canyon, or the Pacific Ocean, and then turns these popular destinations on their heads. "
