“Her landscapes sway between joy and sadness, light and darkness, between the conscious and subconscious.  It is this variation in tone in each of her paintings that creates an emotional dynamic held in balance by the strength of her composition.  As with all her work, it is the human element that connects with us and speaks to us most profoundly.”

“Carla Carli Mazzucato is, first and foremost, honest with herself.  Her paintings are drawn from her own perceptions of life—her impressions, uninfluenced by any socially imposed manner of thinking.  She does not follow the current; hers is a truly free art, light-years from any set tradition.  She paints a contemporary world rich with intense colors and hues that radiate optimism.  Landscapes, compositions, flowers, all born from a truth interpreted by Mazzucato’s innate talent.”

“(Carla Carli Mazzucato’s) work exudes a profound depth and prevailing optimism...  A consummate explorer of creativity, Mazzucato creates...’Tableaux’ which exude the celebrations of life indigenous to her paintings.  These innovative works offer the viewer intimate glimpses into enchanting, imaginative worlds that are always evolving.”

“Mazzucato paints with an impressionistic delicacy that suggests and sings... Her subjective color sense is at once understated and dynamic.”

“As with Chagall, Mazzucato has developed a very personalized colour sense.  The images in Mazzucato’s work often harken back to the works of Monet and Renoir... Yellow symbolised hope for Van Gogh, but there is a more joyful atmosphere to Mazzucato’s work.”

“A spiritual art, (Mazzucato’s) rhythmic compositions symbolically unite people and nature, and act upon the soul the way music does.  Her vivid and deep colors reflect her love for life, believing that an artist’s special tool is to communicate a celebration of life in the joy of the spirit.”


“(Carla Carli Mazzucato) is, if we attempt to define her art, a modern expressionist, still moved by the misery of contemporary humanity, ...however, unlike Rouault or the German expressionists, her art attempts to convey an ultimate optimism in the nature of human beings.”

“With the dynamic enery of a seer (Mazzucato) communicates an optimism rising from the ashes of humanity’s experience of pain to a ‘New Horizon’ where life is celebrated in a dance of line and color.”

“Mazzucato uses her art to give expression to happy experiences and to extract the emotional content from life, sharing the intensity of her feelings.”

“Through (Carla Carli Mazzucato’s) paintings... we can see that a true master is at work, not to define a reality, but to attempt to evoke in those who would see and listen, a visual melody in tune with her world, or at very least, to prompt them to willingly glance through that window of possibility opened by her art.”

“To describe fully (Mazzucato’s) artistic language, one must speak of both warm and tender tones as well as the dynamic harmony of color and imagery that suggests a powerful vision.  There is an abstract quality in her work that makes it timeless.”

“(Carla Carli Mazzucato’s) canvases, painted dynamically in oil, nevertheless possess all the freshness of a graceful sketch.”

“In all of Mazzucato’s paintings, the spirit of wonder, silence and mystery permeate the landscapes, in an eloquent symphony of sensuous forms and color.  Past, present and future are wed forever and captured in a moment.”

“(Carla Carli Mazzucato’s) art conveys an ultimate optimism in the nature of man, and her figures seem to walk toward an indefinite horizon in the hope of finding ‘that moment of truth and peace.’”

“Mazzucato’s art has a commanding presence; she masters the colors, and the shapes come out of her brushes just naturally... All (her paintings) are strong, vibrant expressions of a woman touching her own powerful spirit and letting us share it through her art.”

“With Carla Mazzucato, one image, however bold and varied, is not enough to impart her many rich experiences... This serious and talented artist has quite a range of expression in an art that is a complex of powerful forces.”
