Sean Scully
Sean Scully is an American artist. He was born on June 30, 1945, in Ireland. He went to London to study art at the Central School of Art and Croydon College of Art. In 1972 he received a bachelor’s degree from Newcastle University.
He is known worldwide for his abstract paintings consisting of many layers and alternating colored squares or stripes. Sean’s work has no second base or reference to anyone else’s work. He draws from specific memories of places and events.
“From my studio, south of Munich, I often drive to Venice. And on the way, I collect impressions from these trips, which I then design in the studio. I often paint memories of Venice in my works.”
