ABOUT THE JUROR

Ivan Kustura, Artist
Juror for Shadow, 2014
Artspeak magazine noted the strong presence in Ivan Kustura’s images that makes their special character recognizable at once. His oils dazzle with their lush color and impossibly long, broad brushstrokes especially surprising considering the subjects in this show; horses, women, roses. His work feels very contemporary with a strong foundation in modernism, cubism and surrealism. To quote Kustura, “An art work does not exist in nature itself, it is to be approached with cunning, (not unlike planning a crime) while you cultivate it, grow it. My art is a dialogue opening toward the world that surrounds me, nourishes me, offends me. I am an artist of my time.” Born in Croatia, and a graduate of The Fine Arts Academy of Venice, Kustura has had been featured in group and solo shows at many prestigious gallery in the Hamptons including those of Pamela Williams and Peter Marcelle. He has also shown extensively in Manhattan, notably at Vorpal and OK Harris as well as internationally in galleries from Milan, Venice, and Switzerland to Shang Hai. Kustura lives and works in Southampton.
