PRAISES & COMMENTS

"Matuschka's multimedia presentation is best described as performance piece meets memoir meets artist statement. Chronicling the times through her own evolution, she makes serious and important claims about the social, political and commercial aspects of the female experience. With intellect, grace and humor, she explores the connections between the world, her life and her art. Especially impressive is that she not only acknowledges, but also honors teachers, mentors, and the works of others who influenced her life and art, revealing personal and artistic integrity that is refreshing, indeed.Matuschka's style strikes a unique balance. Her beauty, deeply resonant voice, and stature create a commanding presence, yet she is warm and relatable. Her art and message inspire, while her insight and ideas expand perspectives. She embodies the idea of personal as political as creative. Matuschka's presentations are valuable and enriching, and I highly recommend her as a speaker."

– Professor D.M. Anderson

Educational Consultant, private practice

"Thanks again for inspiring some students, irritating others, and provoking them all to think and grow in directions that they never imagined."

–Dr. Deni Elliott, Eleanor Poynter Jamison Chair in Media Ethics and Press Policy, USF, St. Petersburg, Florida

"Matuschka is a provocative and animated speaker who uses the beautiful artwork she has created over her lifetime to tell her compelling story. She encourages her audience to laugh, to get excited and to really question what they view as comfortable. Her wide range of artwork and the stories behind that work appeals to any crowd. Audience interaction and humor make hers one of the most enjoyable, fun presentations I've participated in."

–Amanda Decker

USF, St. Petersburg, Florida

"We were thrilled to have Matuschka talk at the graduate seminar on visual communications. Through her years of experiences and activities, she vividly demonstrated the use of visual languages in arts and the media to express her messages and emotions. It was truly an inspiring and precious conversation we had with Matuschka, whose work and messages had changed the world, and will continue to have a great impact on the generations to follow."

–Dr. Xiaopeng Wang

Professor, University of Florida

"I heard you speak at William PattersonCollege and am so glad to have been there. I've had few chances to hear someone speak so eloquently and so much from the heart. It was also wonderful to see so many young women interested.Congratulations to you and thanks. You are doing so much good!"

–Tracey Davis, New York

"Thank you again for taking the time to speak with my students. They were genuinely thrilled to meet an artist and activist of such importance. I cannot tell you how much your show inspired my students and me. It was the perfect way for us to gather together our studies in Feminist Philosophies. Your work challenges us to rethink the concepts of femininity as well as the social politics of health. Thank you for your compelling work."

–Dr. Anne Hetzel Gunkel, Prof. of Philosophy

Carthage College, Kenosha, WI

"Your talk captured the attention of everywoman in the audience. The manner in which you have taken charge of your life is very admirable. Thank you again, Matuschka, for being a worthy recipient of our Humanitarian Award."

–Carol Rudoy

President, Mt. Sinai Hospital Service Club, Chicago, IL

"It was a privilege to hear you speak at Brookdale Community College. You are one of the most enjoyable speakers I have heard. Your sense of humor makes your talk so much more enjoyable and the information you share makes it a wonderful learning experience."

–Nelle Robberts, Clarsburg, NJ

What I most admire in your work is its beautiful treatment of such strong and "ugly" truths about our ways of seeing and standards of beauty. It is from this aspect that I learned most, because it enables the work to be direct without being dogmatic; it teaches without attacking, and most importantly it challenges the viewer by forcing her to think about what she sees, not forcing the thoughts themselves."

–Jennifer Fiore, Columbia Student

"We wish to thank you for the exciting presentation at Brookdale I especially enjoyed the story of how your picture appeared on The New York Times. It was also intriguing to see slides of your art.Your presentation was overwhelmingly well received."

–Susan Craig, Program Administrator

Brookdale Community College, Lincroft, NJ
