About the Item
Cinque Torri. Original color drypoint and etching, 1975. Edition of 100 signed and numbered impressions on Arches paper.
Zoran Mušič is one of the most celebrated Slovenian artists, born close to Goriza, who lived and worked in numerous places. He was influenced by many cultures from his early childhood such as Slavic, Italian and Germanic culture. Later on in his life he drew inspiration from French influences. He finished his studies at the School of Fine Arts in Zagreb in 1935, and shortly after that he moved to Spain. From Spain he moved back to Slovenia, where he lived until 1943 and then moved to Venice. It was World War II that changed his life and influenced his art. Mušič was arrested by the Gestapo in 1944, and deported to Dachau, where he spent a year. There he made a series of drawings, which were an extraordinary documentation depicting the extremely difficult circumstances of life in the camp. These drawings inspired one of the most famous of his series of oil paintings and graphic prints, titled “We are not the Last” which he made in the 1970s. After Mušič was released from Dachau, he moved back to Venice, where he also held his first solo exhibition in 1946. Later, in 1950, his first prize was also won in Venice, at the Biennale di Venezia. In 1952 he moves to Paris with his wife Ida. Nevertheless he kept his studio in Venice where he continued to work on different themes such as the Dalmatian and Italian landscapes, moving away from the laws of three-dimensionality and becoming more abstract. Nevertheless he often returned to his origins as a figurative artist, and his awful experience in Dachau. Cinque Torri is a small group of the five towers on the mountain Dolomites in northeastern Italy. We can clearly see here those five towers, it looks like we are watching this mountain from a big distance.

Zoran Antonio Music
Zoran MUSIC is a Slovenian painter and engraver, born on February 12, 1909 in the village of Bukovica, near Gorizia, on the Italian-Slovenian border. He studied at Maribor (1920-1928) and Zagreb (1930-1935). In 1935, he traveled to Spain, Madrid and Toledo, to study and copy the works of Velázquez, El Greco and especially Goya, who marked him deeply. MUSIC is also influenced by Slovenian painters and also by Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, George Grosz, Ljubo Babic and Otto Dix. His work is strongly marked by the atrocities he experienced and suffered in Dachau concentration camp, where he was deported by the Nazis in November 1944, for acts of resistance. He made 150 drawings in the camp. The French National Galleries at the Grand Palais devoted a major exhibition in 1995, inaugurated by François Mitterrand, one of his relatives. A permanent exhibition of his works can be found in Dobrovo Castle (Goriška Brda) in Slovenia. A small exhibition is opened in Ljubljana, at Galerie Zala (2006). He died on May 25, 2005 in Venice.
