As he knew that art, in Brazil is something difficult to survive from, studied nursery. In 1998, moved with the family to Israel, working as male nurse, but internally his heart wanted something else. In 2005, by his new wife incentive, returned to his unique and real passion, the art.

| Zlatko Vasic | | The Research of Vasic\'s Art Works published by artist James Langston in Florida, USA. "The art works of Zlatko Vasic are both stunning and shocking in their honesty. There is so much thought and energy flowing into and out of these works that seeing them is a conversation taking place in real time. Each of his unique works demands your attention. The surface images grab you and the messages is forced into your sub-conscious. Although these works are not abstract in the true sense, they remind of what Marc Chagall said: \'What I mean by \'abstract\' is something which comes to life spontaneously through a gamut of contrasts, plastic at the same time as psychic, and pervades both the picture and the eye of the spectator with conceptions of new and unfamiliar elements...\' This well fits these art works. Plastic skin, plastic fabric and plastic objects fill these works. The message is not just a picture plane icon but each goes much deeper. I have watched as Vasic\'s works have progressed and his unique grasp of the human condition and reaction to daily life through his work still bring the same excitement as they did when I first saw them two years ago. The difference in Vasic’s works and that of many other contemporary artists is his attention to detail and the level of emotional energy that flows into each work. The experience of seeing Vasic’s works is similar to watching a horrible accident and walking away, knowing that you are safe and sound while such tragedy exists around you. The message stays with you. We struggle as a species and most times we survive to become stronger, and more resilient to withstand the next struggle. Vasic states that the goal of his artwork is, \'a metamorphosis of the soul which enables us to change into what we are\'. This is achieved with great emphasis on changing who we are from the experiences we view in his work. Artist and illustrator Zlatko Vasic\'s images will make your mind bendy. His drawings meld fact and fiction, slather on fantasy and then make it do a backbend. Don\'t try this at home. Incredibly beautiful, intricate and delicate, you will want to understand how he tricks the eye and the heart, but don\'t complicate this. It\'s art, served straight up. Enjoy, we double dare you."

| Denis Peterson | | Denis Peterson is a first generation NYC New Realist painter who is currently a leading figure in the burgeoning Hyperrealism movement. “By making something beautiful and hyperreal in appearance, I think he attempts to remind us that people suffering terribly are living, breathing, thinking, and feeling individuals in need of our attention and help (Chris Ashley, Look See)." “To witness genocide is to feel not only the chill of your own mortality, but the degradation of all humanity. Even the most brilliant photography cannot capture the landscape of genocide...This room is empty, though it is full of people. It has been emptied thus, not by the misfortune of disease or disaster, but by the hatred of other people (Fergal Keane, BBC)." “Maybe we need people who can remind us what being human is all about, its best and its worst. Denis Peterson may not want to be one of those people. But then he may not have a choice (Chris Rywalt, NYC Art)." “What makes it all the more unnerving is that this horrific subject matter is treated with a sophisticated, hyperrealist airbrush technique…and so exquisitely crafted that I initially took them for photographs (Robert Ayers, Art Info)." | | | | |
