Born into an artistic family in 1929, Brasilier has spent more than half a century creating canvasses that are a blend of abstraction, expressionism, and something distinctly his own. His works often feature themes and motifs like horses, nature, music, and women. Brasilier’s art is known around the world, from Japan to the United States. He was recently the subject of an exhibition/retrospective at St. Petersburg, Russia’s renowned Hermitage Museum. The Net Cristal team caught up with him to find out about his views on art, inspiration, and what’s going on next in his busy calendar of events.
