Bruno Zupan

Bruno Zupan was born in Slovenia in 1939. At the age of 23, he graduated from the Art Institute in Zagreb and decided to leave home and continue his education in Paris. In 1964, he left Paris for New York, where he began a series of one-man exhibitions of his work in American museums and galleries.

Zupan has painted the vibrant colors of Mexico and the romance of Paris, Venice, and American cities. His main studio is located in the village of Valldemossa on the island of Mallorca. Many of his subjects are found just beyond his door. He greatly enjoys an anti-urban Mediterranean lifestyle, which gives free rein to his desire to glorify the everyday things that have given pleasure to Homer, Byron, Sargent, and Chopin. The sunlight on a broken column, the perfume of almond blossom, the wet spring wind, or the sea smell. He is part and product of this immortal seasonal flux and wants his paintings to be messages from a place of rest and renewal.
