Lee Maelzer
The way of seeing and language developed creates an interdependence which makes
the artist own her subject and the subject in turn control her inescapably.
Her paintings, seemingly both nostalgic and traditional, have a sting in the tail, offering a
contemporary vision of the world told with traditional and technical craft. The observation
of Vuillard with the realities of today.
A graduate from The Royal College of Art, she has work in international collections and
she has exhibited widely in Britain in group shows such as the prestigious John Moores
painting exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery, the BP Portrait Award, the Hunting Art Prizes
and in Germany, Amsterdam, Los Angeles, New York and Switzerland. She has carried
out residences abroad including an Arts Council of England Residency in Colima, Mexico
and the Abbey Fellowship at the British School in Rome.
