Fabian Perez’s figurative art prints reflect his upbringing. Many of his artworks show some of the interesting characters he was exposed to through his father’s business. In Fabian’s art, he portrays his father as the man stood outside the bordellos and nightclubs, with the women being those he saw growing up. Inspired by the Shodo (often practised by Samurai and Buddhist monks). His fusion of martial arts and art became a part of his painting technique. “With Shodo,” Fabian explains, “one sits on the floor with a sheet of rice paper, a brush and Chinese ink. The artist begins to concentrate and, when he feels ready or the urge strikes, he starts to paint”. “When a stroke is made on the paper, the artist cannot turn back. If he is unhappy with what he has created, he must start all over. Even when I’m going backwards and forward with my colours, the important thing is the determination of each stroke.” Fabian Perez was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1967, and had a difficult childhood. His father owned several illegal bordellos and nightclubs, which often resulted in their family home being visited by the police. Fabian’s mother on the other hand was artistic, and encouraged her son to develop his skill for art, proudly displaying his work. When Fabian was 16 his mother died, he then lost his father 3 years later. Following these losses which impacted him so greatly, Fabian lived as a gypsy, turning to martial arts as a way to help him overcome the sadness and despair of losing his parents. Homeless, Fabian taught karate to make a living. It was in 1984 that he met Japanese karate master, Oscar Higa. He became his teacher, father figure, friend and a great inspiration for his life. 3 years after meeting him, he decided to follow Oscar to Italy. It was there, just outside Venice, that he began his career as an artist. After seven years in Italy, where he spent his time painting and giving martial arts exhibitions, Fabian moved to Japan. After his time in Japan, Fabian moved to LA. Here he worked as a busboy and model, painting throughout the night. In 2001, two gallery owners and art publishers saw Fabian’s work and formed a partnership to develop his career as a fine artist. This collaboration was an unmitigated success, with every painting created immediately sold, demand for Fabian’s work exploded. Today Fabian Perez works from a studio in Los Angeles, and has become one of the world’s most successful contemporary artists. Fabian lives with his wife, Luciana (who is in many of his paintings) and his three children. He paints, plays soccer, trains, teaches martial arts to close friends and travels the world for art inspiration.
