Victor Bregeda is a prominent, visual artist recognized for his unique meta-realistic style of painting. Bregeda was born into a family of painters in 1963 in Taganrog, Russia. The artist states that he has been painting for as long as he can remember.
After attending art school in Russia, Bregeda made a decision to move forward with his personal interpretation of creative art, putting himself in sharp contrast with his academic art training. This rebellious move proved victorious as Victor’s art quickly gained recognition in local and international art scenes.
His paintings pack so much content and expression that they require from the viewer extra time and attention for processing. Each artwork is a unique, philosophical journey that often combines hidden clues and multiple story lines. Some paintings appear as riddles with concealed imagery that take observers on a quest to solve them. The artist often provides accompanying descriptions to his visual stories but insists that they should remain open-ended to a viewer’s interpretation.
Bregeda’s idea of divine love, represented in his best selling piece The Eucharist, resulted in a body of work that became part of an artist’s solo show at the Museum of Biblical Art in Dallas, TX.
Victor Bregeda has a faithful following of fans around the world that is constantly growing. Many art collectors who discover Victor’s art become instantly “hooked” on Bregeda’s unique style, and they keep coming back to experience more of their favorite art.
Some of Bregeda’s famous collectors include: Carlos Santana, Pink Floyd, Sheryl Crow, Stevie Nicks, Oscar De La Hoya, Burt Reynolds, Connie Seleca, and John Tesh.
“The key genres of my artwork are plein aire landscapes, still life compositions and portraits performed in a meta-realistic style, with strong roots in subconscious philosophy. I use a variety of techniques and materials while trying to invent new ones. I attempt to reveal the true nature of things hidden from empirical understanding.
I have been particularly influenced by the smooth techniques espoused by the Dutch school of painting. The artists who inspired me the most were: Leonardo Da Vinci, Hieronymus Bosch, Peter Bruegel, Max Ernst, and Nikolai Rerikh. I like the French school of the 18th – 19th centuries as well as the works of Andrew Wyeth. I grew up in a strong creative environment. My artistic abilities are in my blood, thanks to my forefathers.”
