Fabian Perez, 1967 | Embrace series
"Art happens in the sublime moment when the human being expresses his emotions through skills" - Fabian Perez
For Fabian Perez, the purpose of art is to perpetuate beauty.
"That is what I am always striving for. God created the world and embellished it with the wonders of nature. I think it is the artist’s job to embellish it with his work".
"I am constantly fighting for a more romantic world, one where the woman and the man have defined roles and power isn’t always the goal".
Pausing, he says, "I would like to say that it is not important what you have, but how you enjoy it".
Jean Béraud (1849-1935)
Si dedicò alla pittura di genere, in prevalenza dell'ambiente parigino.
Jean Béraud nacque a San Pietroburgo con la sorella gemella Melania, poiché suo padre, scultore, lavorava probabilmente alle opere della cattedrale di Sant'Isacco.
Nel 1853 suo padre morì ed il giovane Béraud rientrò a Parigi con la madre, Geneviève Eugénie Jacquin, e le tre sorelle.
Stanislaw Zoladz, 1952 | Watercolour painter
Stanislaw Zoladz was born in Poland, and has studied at Kraków Academy of Fine Arts. Since 1978 he lives and works in Sweden.
To find motifs for his paintings, Stanislaw is always on the hunt for exiting light settings.
In the summer he paints where growth gives way to rocks by the water in Stockholm's archipelago.
Nature is a predominant theme in his works of art.
But quite often an abandoned tractor, or a red cottage by the horizon, also remind us of human presence.

It is you whom I love today.

Anne-Louis Girodet | Neoclassical painter
Anne-Louis Girodet [Anne-Louis Girodet de Roucy-Trioson 1767-1824] is a French painter whose works exemplify the first phase of Romanticism in French art.
Girodet began to study drawing in 1773. He later became a student of the Neoclassical architect Étienne-Louis Boullée, with whose encouragement he joined the studio of Jacques-Louis David in late 1783 or early 1784.
Girodet won the Prix de Rome 1789 for his Joseph Recognized by His Brothers, which shows the influence of David’s Neoclassicism.
Vytautas Laisonas, 1965 | Magic Realism painter
Lithuanian painter Vytautas Laisonas, born in the village Skrėbiškis-Biržai district, is a member of Lithuania Folk Art Gild since 1991.
A key to his success is his creative ambitious personality and belief that self-analysis leads to perfection. Music, nature, lights, accidental moments are the other things that empower Vytautas to express himself through paintings.
