Artists Describing Their Art:

Amit Bar - In 1950 I was born in Kibbutz Kfar Hamaccabi, Israel, where I lived until 1988. As a kibbutz-member I was not able to take a complete study at an art-college. Therefore I followed evening-lessons drawing for many years. In 1984 I finally got the permission to study creative art at the university. My study at the university of Haifa was combined with Comparative Literature and took three years. I have learned there a lot about various forms of Creative Art. As follows, I decided to dedicate my interest on photography. My final project was children photography. Since 1988 I live in Doetinchem, The Netherlands, and work as a freelance-photographer and painter. In my commercial work I take photographs for a stock agency and make commissioned work. Wishing to combine my photography with drawing and painting, I began to mix them in my artistic work. It began in 1992 with photo collages and took another form in 1996 with body-paintings. Thank you very much for your visit. I wish you lots of pleasure on my gallery and my site, at www.amitbar.com! Amit Bar....

Jean Claude - The French physicist, Joseph Nicephore Niepce, made the first negative on paper in 1816 and the first known photograph on metal that he called an heliograph in 1826. After 1826 there is no place for figurative art ! I am a french born self taught american artist with an eye open on the past (Nicolas de Stael) and the new South Western and South-American painters. For me painting is almost always ABSTRACT ! I create CHAOS and there after I organize the CHAOS ! Mixing the right colors in the right SPACE ! If I do something that looks figurative; it's caricature! Myself looking like Mussolini or the black Ava Gardner ! rests and inspires me... I have always been a ravenous reader in both French and English, and my bookshelves are filled with the works of Updike, Bellow, Henry Miller, Nabokov, Sade, Proust, Celine, Queneau, Boris Vian, among many others. Still a cinephile, I go to the films of Lang, Minnelli, Preminger, Delmer Daves, Godard, Truffaut time and time again. Music always fills my house, whether it be classical (Richard Strauss, Berg, Martinu, Janacek, Debussy), Jazz (Coltrane, Mingus, Miles Davis, The Art Ensemble of Chicago, Albert Ayler, Eric Dolphy), or ...
