- “Colección Obra de Margaret Marley Modlin“, Sala Retiro in collaboration with Malvin Gallery, Madrid, 2022. Lot 52, page 58 of the catalogue.

Margaret starts from an image of a classical character, showing a great interest in drawing. However, the use of colour and the introduction of discordant elements result in a disturbing image with a surrealist aesthetic.

Self-described as "The best painter of the apocalypse of all time", García-Osuna continues: "The Apocalypse of Saint John is the last book of the New Testament, also known as Revelations of Jesus Christ. It is surely the text richest in symbols in the entire Bible and was taken as a visual reference for the compositions of the American... who signed her paintings with an anagram composed of the three emes of her initials.
