La Costa Painting

Filmmaker, sculptor, painter, photographer and printmaker. Moran de Musée is a multi-disciplinary Artist. He studied art is Italy and Southern California. Early in his career he devoted considerable time on still photography to express himself. In time, however, he turned away from photography and began to experiment with other media. As the artist explains, the process was liberating: 'Returning to Los Angeles in 1998, I questioned completely all of the theories of my past work, asking what ideas were mine and what were those of the overpowering influences of past artists. To redefine my work, I had return to the basics of the visual and sculptural languages and to remove all narrative and historical references in my pursuit of pure form in sculpture. I was without the facilities o carve stone so I concentrated on drawing and experimenting with other materials to use in sculpture." - Curator David Opalinski, The Parkview Collection Questions for the artist:
