Synthesis: Lost and Found in America: The Art of Vesna Kittelson by Vesna Kittelson. Afton Historical Society Press Published 2020. Stated 1st Ed with dust jacket. "Vesna Kittelson grew up in the ancient Roman city of Split in Croatia. After finishing her law degree in Split she moved to Cambridge, England, and later to the US. She studied art at the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities where she obtained a bachelor's degree in Studio Arts and a master's degree in Design. She continues to live, work and exhibit her paintings in the Twin Cities, England and Croatia.

Vesna taught painting in the Fine Arts Department and in the Graduate Program at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s. She was the recipient of the Bush Fellowship for painting, and several Minnesota State Arts Grants and she was granted an open studio day sponsored by the Walker Art Center. She is a member of the co-op Traffic Zone Center for the Visual Arts and in the past was a member of the feminist co-op WARM. The series of portraits, Young Americans, is an open-ended project of painting young people between 20 and 30 years of age. These paintings are fragments, just a face, painted in oil on paper, cut to be placed directly on a wall. Conceptually, the cutout form derives from my childhood experience of growing up in the ancient Roman city of Split, Croatia, where I was literally surrounded by fragments of...
