Child of the Moon Jan J Beran Jan J. Beran was born in Sarajevo (Bosnia) in 1954 to a family of artists and filmmakers. Raised in the atmosphere of creativity and experimentation Jan tried his hand at sculpture as a young child. At the age of six he already had his first sculpture exhibition in Sarajevo. Having earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in TV journalism from Sarajevo University he started working as a TV/ film cameraman and director of photography. Jan studied art in the rich environment of Sarajevo influenced by Eastern and Western cultural traditions. While traveling around the world the young artist was exposed to a variety of different cultures, which helped him grow as a painter and develop his own style.

some people wanted to go to the other worlds Selin Melek Aktan A circular rhythm distinguishes Selin Melek Aktan’s stunning celestial constructions, abstract bursts of color with cinematic warmth. Indeed, the temperament of these textured abstractions evoke the film stock emulsion works of abstract cineaste Stan Brakhage. Mercurial, fire-breathing eyes of hurricanes and tornados erupt and twist across the picture plane in rich oranges, reds, and black. Amongst hinted outlines of dark trees and exploding galaxies, Aktan’s circular motif reigns, a reminder of the ever-revolving circle of life. Aktan has exhibited work in her native Istanbul, and across the globe in Greece, Bulgaria, Switzerland , Paris, Italy, and the U.S. Of her artistic inspiration she says, “I traveled to the four corners of the earth, and each place I visited added to my desire for unique artistic expression. Wherever I went, I found new influences directing my brush strokes or guiding my hands as I worked at my paintings or sculptures.” The results of her dedication are wonderful works of astounding temperament and power.
