Anton Zoran Mušič (Boccavizza, February 12, 1909 - Venice, May 25, 2005) was a Slovenian painter and printmaker, an exponent of the new Paris School.
Born in Gorica in 1909, he studied at the Academy of Art in Zagreb.
His painting looked both to the Austrian Secessionism of artists such as Klimt and Schele, absorbing their use of color in a balance between symbolism and decoration, and to French Impressionism, from which he took delicate tonal passages.
He was one of the great protagonists of the Resistance and for this he was interned in Dachau, where he was able to portray in great secrecy the horrific life of the concentration camp.
He was freed only in 1945 and worked between Venice and Paris, where he moved in the early 1950s. In 1951 he won the "Paris Prize" on the recommendation of two other Italian artists, Campigli and Severini.
His canvases were evocations of reality imbued with memories and emotions, especially in the works of his maturity, where naturalistic references faded more and more into chromatic variations.
