Also these artworks had deserved the Critique «Diana Malivani. «Seeing Music». Critical Analysis» by
Christopher Rosewood, Art Critic and Member of the International Confederation of Art Critics (ICAC).

«Malivanis deep, analytical and conceptual approach perpetuates and crescendos when observing ‘The Overture, a composition that propels visual parallels with the graphic musical scores of John Cage and of the subsequent Fluxus movement. The motifs depicted across Malivanis canvas are reminiscent of the experimental symbols indicating sound, and at once the spectator can tangibly experience the invigorating crashing of cymbals through the artists expressive iteration of movement and audio. The sensorial ties between divergent elements cast cognitive comparisons with Gerard van Honthorsts striking scenes that harbour the raucous atmosphere of music and dancing».

For the Artist, music represents an inexhaustible source of inspiration. One of the most difficult goals of artists depicting music on canvas is to convey its rhythm, brilliance, and uniqueness in abstract compositions.
