Artist Bob Pejman
Pejman was surrounded by art and
culture from an early age. The son of an operatic composer and a concert
musician, he spent his early childhood in Vienna, and then by way of England
moved to the United States in 1976.
In his works, Pejman creates
idyllic, tranquil worlds. "There are no people in my paintings, so you can
imagine yourself in the scenes", explains the artist. "The scenes are
already romantic, but my idea is to make them even more so". In doing so,
he pushes the colors to make them more intense and exaggerates the sunlight.
"I don't simplify the shapes. You get into the cracks and feel the
structures and the stones", he says, considering them to be marks of
cultivated wisdom rather than declination. There is romance in history, and
Pejman reminds the viewer of classic beauty and emotions that transcend time,
all inherent to such places as the Mediterranean.
