Master today - Rome Trastevere group exhibition
In the excellent setting of Palazzo Velli, the Maestri Oggi event was held, curated by the art critic and historian dr. Leonarda Zappulla.
The McMuller triptych has made a good impression despite the very high aesthetic level of the works on display, so much so that the criticism has thus addressed them in the catalog: "The images evoked by the shots of the artist make photography a real Emotional experience: the delicate reverberation of light that glides timidly on the skin of the models [...] making us perceive more the essence than the presence of these women wrapped in the dark The sublime play of red on the marble back of 50 Shades lights up the triptych with a mischievous symphony, placing the mind, eye and heart of the observer on the same line. "
The event also benefited from the participation of the Maestro (with a dutifully capitalized M) Mario Salvo who gave Sinuosa a considerable compliment.

Modigliani Award - Spoleto Italy
Modigliani was a great artist and, especially for the time, a great provocateur, so much so that his first personal exhibition was closed by Buoncostume (a police department that at the time dealt with decorum and public decency), a few hours after opening.
For this reason the most extreme pictures of McMuller's production have been requested, which received the Modigliani Award thanks to Heaven Light (light of Paradise) and Night Predator (night predator). Extreme reactions of the jury members, sometimes amused (Salvo Nugnes president Spoleto Arte, Alberto D'Atanasio director of Modigliani museum and Roberto Villa internationally renowned photographer) and at times rightly embarrassed (Silvia Casarin Rizzolo Orchestra director of the Teatro La Fenice of Venice and Antonieta of Vizia of the RAI), while Josè Van Roy Dalì (son of Salvador Dalì) found fertile ground to put on display again his artistic and infinite sympathy.

The final surrender leave to the contemplation of the last word."

2018 March
McMuller was invited to the International Exhibition of Art in Venice and takes part in ushering in the new series of paintings “Museum”
Starting from this event, Andreas has established for its reference works to the new standard, “Museum”, which provides for: an expensive but exceptional print on cotton paper Hahnemühle (from the black in spectacular and profound, but very, very delicate), a universal framework in painted wood theme and the new acrylic glass museum: anti-UV, anti-electrostatic, and especially anti-reflective coating.
The peculiarity of this material is that the “glass” is there but cannot see, and the work thus made may show in all its glory, in the brightness of his blacks very deep and at the same time well protected. The works chosen by the curator are, needless to say, “Sinuous” and “Thoughts”, certified for the occasion by the portal Patamu (the direct competitor of the Siae).
In the event McMuller has received from the hands of the dr.ssa Serena Carlino and the international Prize of the Doges for the wise interpretation of the Art, with the following motivation: “for its creativity, is the perfect combination of harmony and light, has the ability to capture the sensibility of the soul.” During the event, these works have been selected by no less than the critic Marco Rebuzzi, conservator of the Diocesan Museum G. Gonzaga of Mantua, for a major exhibition to be held in 2019 in the exhibition halls of the Museum.
2018 February
The painter and Art Critic Franco Bulfarini, as a result of his careful analysis of McMuller and available works, has issued the following critical (fill in the site and should we paint.en)
Andreas McMuller - If the view of reality generates emotions
[...] McMuller, with his camera, rips open the veil of Maya, to penetrate the "other" reality, of the source, the source of life, which, as it says in the well-known philosopher Jung: "there has fallen on this land, as the seeds to germinate in our essence". [...]Here is the artistic photographer that looks for the forms of the visible in order to define the hidden side, the signifier. Each photo told of deep-seated reasons, thoughts, underlying, reality in its true essence of beauty, beyond the mists and shadows, to unearth the emotions, to follow the path of light.
[...] If the natural, undoubtedly it is important to Andreas, then to me they are the shots of one of his virtual galleries: the gallery McWhite, and here I find extraordinary images of female nudes, such as Whiteness (Turin - February 2017 - Nikon D800), the Hills (Milan - July 2017 - Nikon D800), Triangulations (Turin - February 2017 - Nikon D800). There are shots that give the image of purity and whiteness, like the sculptures of Canova, have a unique charm that is quality.
Andreas reinvents itself constantly, as only can do a virtuous. The cameras, not hiding anything, the usa as the painter brushes with security and mastery, rare, he is a photographer for over thirty years, from 1996 he occasionally services to companies and from the 2012 photo art, displayed in exhibitions and galleries in all italy.
[...] The gaze of the artist goes beyond mere representation, that everyone can do in their own way, he is able to obtain a measure of internalized images, which exceeds the semblance to decant the substance, the reality is different and altered that everyone possesses, but that not all are able to express to feel full, let alone share.
The reality is always bivalent: given the surface and the given inner, objective element, and reference the subjective, the join produces a new reality, that it was given to know that talented artists such as Andreas McMuller can capture and transmit.
