In this painting entitled “Portrait of the Dead Artist” I play with the idea of the death of art through the image of a dead artist. The artist’s body seen from a bird’s eye view is laid down in front of us in the form of a deformed swastika and on the right fist the traces of a wound are visible. That wound we may consider either as evidence of an outside act of violence or as the artist’s stigma, thus something supernatural yet innate to the artist. In the symbolic sense the painting can be interpreted as a cathartic need for eternal regeneration, i.e. as the artist’s tendency to re-birth through his own death.

Rober Pauletta was born in Premantura (Croatia) on February 2, 1961. He graduated from the Department of Interior Design at the high school which later became the School of Applied Arts. The Department was run by professor Ivan Obrovac whose influence was crucial in the artistic development not only of Pauletta, but also of a whole generation of future Istrian artists. Pauletta graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb in 1985, at the Painting Department, in the class of professor Kulmer. From 1983 to 1986 he was an assistant in Edo Murtić’s atelier. He is active as an individual artist for some years after the academy. From 1991 to 2003 he teaches professional subjects and the theory of design at the School of Applied Arts and Design in Pula. In 2004 he takes up the leading position at the newly founded MMC Luka where, aided by his cooperators, he organized a series of artistic events covering a wide area of cultural activity. Since 2009 he returns to his activity of professional artist. In 2013 he founded the Arts organization Robot, then together with his colleagues and artist B.Šumonja and T.Bičić opened the Poola Gallery in Pula. His artistic biography numbers over 50 individual and 100 group exhibitions both in the country and abroad. He was awarded several times and many of his works have been bought for important private and national collections.
