About
CLEMENTE Influenced by the “Greats” such as Miro, Kandinsky, and Dalí, Clemente has been in over 85 exhibitions in the US and Europe. His work hangs in numerous public and private collections.
“My statement is simple: I want to charm the observer with happiness, packaged in blissful color and energetic form. My messages are found in every day human behavior: Love, Relationships, Nature and Passion.”
Born in 1937 in Italian Tripoli, North Africa, artist, Clemente Mimun lived his childhood years in the ex-French colony of Tunisia. Raised between three cultures, Clemente immersed himself in the museums of LeBardo and Carthage, abundant with Roman and Phoenician art, all of which left an indelible impression. At the age of 16, Clemente moved to Paris where he spent countless hours in the coffeehouses absorbing the philosophical conversations of elder artists. To this day, Clemente acknowledges these experiences in the development of his own personal philosophies on existentialism and self-responsibility – all of which transpire in the motivation for his artwork.
