A current exhibition at Louis Stern Fine Arts presents a selection of these paintings from Feitelson’s self entitled, Allegorical Confessions, a moody and sensual, figurative wartime series that relates the artist’s own psychological torment while navigating what appears to have been a quite complicated love life. Exploring allegorical themes relating to lust, chastity, forbidden and unrequited love, this series abounds with drama, romantic intrigue and a curiosity for what lurks beneath the shadows of desire.
