«The psychological depth of the figures that Malivani paints suggest connections with James MacNeill Whistler and Leonardo da Vinci. These works impeccably combine Realism with Abstraction, as the execution contains both elements of Renaissance techniques, as well as a sense of Abstract Expressionist vigour in the brushwork, which aligns Malivani with artists, such as Arshile Gorky, through the use of strong pigment and avant garde form».
