de BAL, MIEKE
Mieke Bal analysis is focused in the eerie sense of very real andvery unreal that the paintings emanate. She considers this the heartof Balthus work. It invites viewers in and repels them at the sametime. We get access to a world all his own, but are not told what isthere to see.Thus, the works labor against assumptions ofrepresentation and appropriation. The means of this labor figurationis indispensable for the effet.Although figurativity is supposedlythe royal road to realism, in Balthus s case it is not at all. Balargues that the paintings draw the viewer into a world we honw not toexist.This canny fictionality makes allegations of eroticappropriation naive and censoring.Reducing Balthus s work to thepaintings of nude adolescent girls is, moreover, ignoring his manyworks that are not in the least focused on this theme. Color, space,genres or history are some of the key concepts that the author put inthe center of Balthus work.
