Bruno Zupan
Bruno Zupan has carried the traditions of the Impressionists into the modern era with grace, elegance and beauty. Using oil paints and watercolors, he creates gorgeous landscapes and drawings of everyday locations like gardens, city streets and beaches. From exquisite vistas to simple scenes of the world right outside his door, Zupan captures it all with inordinate care and attention to the interplay of light and color on canvas.
Zupan was born in Slovenia in 1939. As a young man, he studied art in Zagreb, Croatia, before pursuing his artistic passions in Paris in 1962. He moved again in 1964, this time to the United States, where he settled in New York City and began exhibiting his artwork in galleries and museums.
Zupan became an American citizen in 1969, but he continued to travel avidly. He regularly spent time in Italy, Spain, France and Mexico, painting their vibrant colors, light and scenery, often using a private courtyard or public plaza as a studio. He also established a studio in the Spanish village of Valldemossa on Majorca island.
Zupan’s work has been exhibited more than 200 times at museums and galleries throughout America, Europe, Japan and Kuwait. He was awarded a lifetime membership in the Society of French Artists in 1976. In 2000, the Columbus Museum of Art curated a retrospective of his work. Today, his art is in the collections of the Oklahoma City Museum of Art and the United Nations Headquarters in New York.

- Italian Post Modern Pop Art Lithograph Silkscreen Valerio Adami Galerie MaeghtBy Valerio AdamiLocated in Surfside, FLTitled Ledoux, color limited edition lithograph. Hand signed by artist in pencil to right hand corner, 101/150 to left. 19.5" X 14" print view area. This is done in a Postmodernist, Memphis Milano style. Valerio Adami (born 17 March 1935) is an Italian painter. Educated at the Accademia di Brera in Milan, he has since worked in both London and Paris. His art is influenced by Pop Art. Adami was born in Bologna. In 1945, at the age of ten, he began to study painting under the instruction of Felice Carena. He was accepted into the Brera Academy (Accademia di Brera) in 1951, and there studied as a draughtsman until 1954 in the studio of Achille Funi. In 1955 he went to Paris, where he met and was influenced by Roberto Matta and Wifredo Lam. His first solo exhibition came in 1959 in Milan. In his early career, Adami's works were expressionistic, but by the time of his second exhibition in 1964 at Kassel, he had developed a style of painting reminiscent of French cloisonnism, featuring regions of flat color bordered by black lines. Unlike Gauguin, however, Adami's subjects were highly stylized and often presented in fragments. In the 1970s, Adami began to address politics in his art, and incorporated subject matter such as modern European history, literature, philosophy, and mythology. In 1971, he and his brother Giancarlo created the film Vacances dans le désert. In 1974 he illustrated a Helmut Heissenbuttel poem, Occasional Poem No. 27. Ten Lessons on the Reich with ten original lithographs {Galerie Maeght}. In 1975, the philosopher Jacques Derrida devoted a long essay, "+R: Into the Bargain", to Adami's work, using an exhibition of Adami's drawings as a pretext to discuss the function of "the letter and the proper name in painting", with reference to "narration, technical reproduction, ideology, the phoneme, the biographeme, and politics". The Galerie Maeght is a gallery of modern art in Paris, France, and Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The gallery was founded in 1936 in Cannes. The Paris gallery was started in 1946 by Aimé Maeght. The artists exhibited are mainly from France and Spain. Since 1945, the gallery has presented the greatest modern artists such as Matisse, Bonnard, Braque, Miró, and Calder. In 1956, Adrien Maeght opened a new parisian venue. The second generation of “Maeght” artists was born: Bazaine, Andre Derain, Giacometti, Kelly, Raoul Ubac, then Riopelle, Antoni Tapies, Pol Bury and Adami, among others. There were four retrospective exhibits of Adami's work between 1985 and 1998. They were held in Paris, the Centre Julio-Gonzalez de Valence (Spain), Tel Aviv, and Buenos Aires. In 2010, the Boca Raton Museum of Art devoted a special exhibit to Adami's Post Modern paintings and drawings. Derriere le Miroir, the editor was Aimé Maeght. Derrière le Miroir is a French art magazine created in 1946 and published until 1982...Category
