Anton Sipos was born in 1938 in the small village of Donji Vakuf in the Bosna central mountain region of Yugoslavia. His hypnotic interest in drawing manifested itself at an early age. Drawing has been the anchor of his restless, unsettled life. He left home I his teens and supported himself as a film animation artist.His very first collaboration Surrogat (1961) won an Academy Award for best animated short subject. Doing freelance work for movie studios never took him away from his painting. Six years in Paris saw him become one of the elite painters of the Ecole de Paris. His paintings from this period hang in major galleries throughout Europe in the company of works by Pugni, Clave, Chagall, Buffet, Pignon, and others. He exhibited annually at the Salon des Artists Francais in the Grand Palais, and worked as an instructor at several note-worthy ateliers. In 1970 Anton arrived in Los Angeles and immersed himself in his work. Never submitting to pressures of the marketplace he often resorted to working as an artist for the major studios. His superb classical training won him a contract with the Eleanor Ettinger Studios in New York to work with Norman Rockwell, transposing his original oils to lithographic plates. His first major New York exhibition took place at the Jasper Gallery on 57th Street in 1977. His latest film collaboration was with Andrei Konchalovsky on Maria’s Lovers (1984), a film in which Anton appears in a scene with Natassja Kinski. For more than 30 years, Anton Sipos’ unflagging devotion to his own unique impressionist vision, has resulted in a rich harvest of paintings, which stand the test of time.
