 “CZA”
FRANCE
Born in 1959 of Polish and Dutch descent, CZA, studied painting and photography at the Fine Arts University of
Metz. He started his artistic career in Paris in serigraphy, then as an
illustrator and draftsman.
After ten years, CZA returned to his first love: painting. His
paintings are done in acrylic on wood or canvas. and he looks for inspiration in the
myths and symbols of our cultures.
In the last couple of years, CZA has also created many websites which he maintains, to disseminate and further the knowledge and love
of art and art history, as well as sources and resources
for artistic and technical information.
PRESS:
Noëlle Vignaux - Artiste, Gallery owner, Paris :
“In the paintings of CZA the images break, the planes are
fragmented as through the prism of a kaleidoscope, but the subject retains all its share
of mystery. His imagination abounds in strong images, a world abounding in shapes and
colors where animals, figures, motifs, signs and symbols are united. Between the
cloisonné shapes, outlined in black with Cubist perspectives, his composition which is
both free and dense, s very structured and invites you to a voyage beyond time…”

Après ses études en
peinture et photographie aux Beaux-Arts de Metz (France), CZA débute sa carrière
artistique, tout d'abord dans la sérigraphie à Paris.
Il se dirige ensuite peu à peu vers l'édition comme illustrateur.
Un nouveau tournant dans sa carrière l'amène vers la publicité ou il sévit en tant que
roughman.
Trouvant le milieu trop étriqué pour s'exprimer, il décide de revenir à sa passion
première : la peinture.
