Biography

Francisco Bartus is a Spanish painter born in 1975 in Valencia. He was encouraged by his school teachers to study art and, after completing his education, he began his career as a professional designer and visual artist. In this first stage, he focused the subjects of his works on still lifes in which he applied a modern language and techniques with enthusiasm accepted by galleries and the public.
Then, under the influence of Carl Jung's ideas, he decided to move to a new genre to show in a plastic and brilliant expression how some of our deepest feelings are partially inherited and are not molded merely by our personal or individual experience. Thus Bartus developed his own unique style to produce the impressive works of art we present to you here, combining powerful pictorial techniques with an idea of the human collective underlying his more recent themes.
The use of mixed media creates a 3D dimension that makes his pieces extraordinarily different. The layers of paint are impressive and add more dimension to the production; his works are innovative and unique, combining a variety of materials and techniques with new ideas to create exciting works.
Bartus has been widely shown in various galleries in the USA, mainly in Florida, California, and New York as well as in Europe, France, Spain and recently Germany and Switzerland.

Francisco's iconic breath-taking images bring together crowds of colorful figures that, when viewed from a distance, transform into notable three-dimensional representations of famous faces, landmarks, or classic tributes to pop art. His innovative use of a variety of materials and techniques, and his distinct application of texture contrast and layering, blend with his dynamic palette to create a 3D effect that gives every composition a spectacular impact.
Francisco grew up in a house full of art and music and studied Art History at the university. He immediately pursued a life in art, and his interest in mixed-media work combined with his love for abstraction, hyper-realism and, above all, pointillism led him onto a completely original path. He describes the feeling of being 'hypnotized' by pointillist art and the way artists like Seurat and Signac built forms and images so beautifully simply by painting dots on the canvas, ordering chaos and, in particular, the phenomenon of synchronized movement, like a school of neon fish moving in flawless formation, or a murmuration of starlings swirling in the sky in a pattern that is always changing, yet always perfect.

Over the years, this fascination evolved into artworks that explore the nature of collectivity in an elegant and precise, yet visually striking style. As a result, he has established an enviable reputation as a visionary and innovative artist, and his works are now highly sought after in galleries across Europe and the USA.
