Marko STUPAR (1936-2021). Paris, rue des Abbesses animated. Gouache on card signed lower center. Height : 92 cm - Width : 72 cm Note: the 2014 exhibition of his work at Galerie Roussard in Paris, entitled "La touche slave du post-impressionnisme" (The Slavic touch of post-impressionism), is a good illustration of Marko Stupar's technique and work. Born in Bosnia in difficult living conditions, drawing quickly became a means of escape from his daily life. He later enrolled in evening classes at the Belgrade School of Fine Arts, while working as an engineer. Fascinated by the Impressionist masters he discovered in the capital's museums, he managed to settle in Paris for a time and marveled at its urban landscapes, which he transcribed in the manner of these masters.
