BIOGRAPHY



Odysseus Krum was born in 1951 in Bulgaria. He received a BFA in Architecture and a Masters of Fine Art from the Art Academy in Sofia, Bulgaria where he studied Painting and Graphic Design.

By the end of the 70s Odysseus Krum is already a well-known artist in Bulgaria, where he receives numerous national and international awards. Troubled by the communist regime and a human rights activist, he flees Bulgaria in the mid 80s with his wife and young daughter to Germany.

After some initial financial despair he begins working with the German and European Interior Design Industry where he applies his skills in fine art to design and achieves soon thereafter unexpected and rapid success. During the 90's he reaches professional acclaim as a Top Designer in the European Interior Industry.

During those years he develops his own art in addition and creates a new style of painting which he calls "Of Art" (A textile design gets industrially printed in yards, stretched and used as a canvas and painted over to form a new form of art). His art is exhibited in Germany, Belgium, Austria, France, Italy, Switzerland and The Netherlands.
