Marlo started painting when she was twelve, an inner refuge to her
questionings and her family's changing life which she had to cope
with and adapt to quickly. She thus developed a curious, somewhat
distant eye on her environments, saving in her mind impressions,
atmospheres, colors, skies, sceneries which years later come to life
on canvas, surging from her mind and soul, be it pastels,
aquarelles, oils and finally acrylic's many techniques, suiting her
intuitive, «alla prima» painting. As she also is also a prized poet,
painting and poetry came to her rescue when tragedy fell onto her
two children, enabling her to express her pain and emotions, as well
as to find the way back to life, opening a door to her talent by
increasing her artistic sensitivity through this form of meditation
and inner-balancing out. Poetry is the weft of her works, painting
expressing through colors, composition and techniques what poetry
says in words and rhythm. Marlo's parents gave her the love of art.
So when in Rome, she took in this country's richness, studying the
great masters and training her eye by contemplating them endlessly,
best art school she still indulges in, forever trying to enrich
therewith her modern art.
Education: I did two years art studies at UCLA, University of
California in Los Angeles, USA and what I particularly appreciated
is that they leave one free to create, giving us the means to do so.
So that's what I have been doing since, letting my imagination fly
and the brush or knife or other means interpret it on the canvas.
The techniques to do so come by themselves. I follow, no trend or no
specific influence except the love of art and our great artists that
I have no end in studying; that is my only and best schooling to
train the eye, the composition, colour usage, colour being the
source of my expressivity to express the inner surge and need for
creation which explains the variety in my paintings. This
expressivity originating from my inner self resembles the moto of
the Blaue Reiter and Kandinsky's colour study, Some aspects of
Gerhard Richter's works , I also like Nicolas d Stael and admire Van
Gogh's tremendous colours, and, of course the Italian Renaissance
painters, the giants of art. But William Turner, the master of light
and atmospheres admired by Ruskin, is really my favorite, painter
and poet like me. My paintings tell a story, and my poetic images
render atmospheres often with a figurative element. My abstracts
always have a meaning behind them, they are not geometrical.in
meaningful. I also paint emotions like the non-emotion paintings of
G.Richter when under communist regime. Normal schooling underwent in
the Swiss mountains, in Montreal, Canada, Lugano, Italian part of
Switzerland, and Los Angeles USA. Later I lived in Geneva, Tunis,
Tunisia, Vienna Austria and, when married, in Rome to finally
settled down in Geneva. Have a look at my website;
www.reves-resalites.com with all of my paintings, exhibits, events,
poetry booklets and my yearly activities with photographs.
Nationality: Swiss, Austrian and Greek, born in 1941. Marlo lived in
the French speaking Swiss mountains, in Montreal, Lugano (Italian
speaking Switzerland), Geneva, Tunis, Vienna, Rome and finally
settled down in Geneva. Art studies at UCLA, University of
California at Los Angeles. Study of Giorgio Vasary's « Lives of the
best painters, sculptors, architects XIV to XVI, first
methodological and biographical approach to art studies and still a
reference today.

I am a Swiss native but also of various other
European origins; my father was from Vienna, Austria, my family name
is polish, my grandmother was from Germany and so on, and I married
a Greek, had two wonderful children. However tragedies hit them and
the curtain dropped suddenly upon this part of my life. Painting and
poetry were saviors I grasped at to pull back to life. The way up
and the way back to find myself in a completely different phase of
life began to be expressed through art, painting, which had been my
favorite hobby since I was twelve and has accompanied all my life
that began in 1941 and also poetry, putting in images and in
words... With my family we lived here and there, for three or four
years, so I developed a keen eye and registered in my inner mind
like snapshots that later wanted to be re-created on canvas, in
their atmospheres and lights. Emotionally striking world events and
emotions in general, are also one of my musts, expressing the horror
through colors and composition or very strong emotions. Since I am
also a poet, my poetic images of atmospheres say through colors and
composition what words express, evident link between painting and
poetry. My Third theme are abstracts that, however, do express the,
at that time, emotional status I am in or any other deep down
diffuse feeling that just spurts out and takes shape on the canvas,
so to speak by itself, through layers and layers of paint and
colors. Having lived and done my schooling in various countries and
languages, I have developed a critical eye and distance to help
rapid adaptation and let sink down in me what I have seen which is
reproduced some day on canvas. This explains the variety in my
painting and the many techniques to express it I just discover while
being plunged in what is happening on the canvas. I always feel
absolutely free to paint whatever comes out, don't follow any trend
but have always been most interested in painters from all over,
having developed a very critical and keen eye. Going to a museum or
an exhbiation is real schooling for me. I would say that a
counterparty painter I appreciate is Gerhard Richter for his mastery
of all the variety present in his paintings and the interioration of
political situations he has gone through, expressed in some of his
paintings. Nicolas de Staėl has also some paintings expressing
feelings. Art is a never ending marvel and I am so lucky to have
such a creative nature in everything I do. Painting has always be
real joy for me, a need, urgency often to express something that
just has to come out, either in a spurt or after long maturation.
Techniques vary in accordance to what wants to be expressed and
mediums go from pastels, watercolors, oil to acrylic. I did some art
studies at UCLA, University of California at Los Angeles, USA and
what I particularly appreciated is that they leave one free. So
that's what I've been doing since, just painting what I feel like,
letting my imagination fly and the brush or knife or other means,
following no trend or no specific influence except the one and only
love of art and our great artists that I have no end in looking at.
I don't have many exhibits, mainly one a year but they are mostly
solo shows with up to 100 works. Often, I also give a personal
poetry reading of my poems which I present in a theatrical way,
accompanied by professional musicians. But, at present, due to
various opportunities in the big Exhibitions in the USA, I
definitely concentrate on painting. Have a look at my website;
www.reves-resalites.com with all of my paintings, exhibits, events,
poetry booklets and my yearly activities with photographs.

in fashion, in banks due to my languages, International
organizations, and have been teaching languages (French, English,
German) either at home for kids, mine too, or for private schools;
creative teaching adapted to the students objectives, raging from
top managers to youngsters for their school demands and/or
international exams. On the side, at home, in midst of family life,
during 10 years, I developed an original, very successful artistic
activity, decorating some of Geneva's luxury hotels with big flower
bouquets and creating very original mural masks. There was a
definite need for creativity but painting was just too time
absorbing at the time.
