Will
van Berlo Netherlands, Mariahout. Born: Gemert 1949, The Netherlands. B.A.
of Arts, Art Academy, Belgium. Libertas Nescia: “… My paintings are showing a
powerful preoccupation with the existential dilemma of the human being: freedom
and the fear for freedom. With oilpaint, acrylic or mixed media, I am looking for
the colourful free translation of the inner world of emotions and feelings of
authenticity of live fear, hope and sometimes desparation. The mood of my
passions has to be noticeable in the paintings and accordigly I am willing to
respect and accept the language of the painting that arises. Because I am going
with open-minded on exploration, I am out of control until I feel the intensity
of the leading thread of my life. Only after that I am taking control again and
I am deciding that the painting has been finished….”.Personal web

Biesterbos adheres specialized in art , in which he draws , paints, photographs

spatial working for several years . Content of the work is always a search for
the limits of movement and sound , the progress of evolution and the place of
the developing human herein . As the African culture with the ' tam tam ' transferred
messages , so I now bring the messages through images full of eloquence . The
Warp that a lot of work occurs symbolizes unrelenting development both
personally and in the workplace. The constant movement as the natural elements
wind , the waves of water , resonating sound , and the tiny Moving material by
expansion or contraction , or the mental data as a perpetual motion giving an
impetus to contemplation of the money , and serve as incentive for further

Edel Bordón Cuba, Havana. Graduated in the Cuban Academy of Fine Arts
“San Alejandro”. The works of Edel Bordón are aimed at the homo ludens,
surpassing boundaries, but not in an aggressive way. They present a hybrid form
that transcends thematic repetitions and explores form. His paintings, far from
any blaring loudness to draw everyone’s attention, put forward a reflexive and
discreet humor, an exercise of visual intelligence. His works reveal eroticism
and seduction, as well as the existential frustrations of the artist. Personal

Karin Bos Netherlands.
Born: Rijswijk, 1966. Lives and works in Amsterdam.
At first glance, the picture work of Karin Bos evokes a pleasant world. Bright
colors and motifs that refer regularly to childhood contribute to this.
However, slightly absurd discords and frictions then raise questions that
remain unanswered. The extras in her work are often knights errant and stray
heroines or otherwise out of context dislocated characters. They reflect
"The Search", but the only evidence they put on the wrong track. Just
as they think they have unraveled mysteries, solves the answer to a new
question. So everything they embrace their journey only provides a semblance of
certainty.Personal web

Aidan Bremner Portugal (Great Britain), Lagos. Aidan Bremner was born in Edinburgh/Scotland. Studied at Edinburgh College of Art 1963-68. Aidan lives and works from Lagos all year round. He was born and trained as artist and art teacher in Edinburgh (Scotland). He is mainly working outdoors, directly from nature, choosing characters and selecting scenes which record the essence of the Algarve and its people. The strongest influence comes from the subject itself, it determines the mood and style of the picture, which can appear as a mixture of cartoon images and three dimensional studies, sometimes overlapping to give a surrealistic effect. He blends historical characters with everyday people and consciously distorts the perspectives. He also works in three dimensions, creating sculptures in metal and wood.videos

Ragna Bruno USA, Hannock, Maine. Ragna Bruno Torkanowsky: “I was born in Madrid, Spain, into an artistic home. My mother was Swedish - an amateur sculptor. My father, who was German, started out as a poet and later on became a businessman. Our house was filled with the paintings and photographs of my grandfather, Otto Bruno. We had a great library with books in different languages, and access to classical music. An uncle, Gunther Busch, was the Director of the Museum in Bremen. My sister Cristina Bruno is a pianist, and my son, Blas Bruno, is an architect in Blue Hill, Maine. Friends of the house were mostly artists.”. My studies in Art History and French took me to Switzerland, other studies took me to London, and since then I have traveled in Europe, India, Mexico and South America. In 1975 I came to the United States to marry Werner Torkanowsky, an orchestra conductor of international renown. Here we led, together, a life dedicated to each other and our Art until 1992, the year of his untimely death. Maine has continued to be my residence, with frequent visits to Spain. Personal web
