Clara Berta | Studio City, California USA
Clara Berta grew up in a culturally rich and stimulating environment, born in a Hungarian enclave in Romania, then moving to Chicago at the age of eleven. She relocated to Los Angeles when she began her education where she received her BA in Psychology from Antioch University.|
Through the years, while still pursuing fine art, she also worked as an actress. At the same time, she traveled, grew beautiful gardens and continued to study and paint as well as exploring other media including writing and photography. Berta continues to explore artistic talents through private studies in mixed media with Carol Slade, Annie Wharton, monotype studies with Lynn Bernay and with Ron Pokrasso at the Riverside Museum and Palm Desert Museum.
Berta has concentrated on abstract expressionism through painting and unique monotypes. Her paintings and prints explore theme such as the ebb and flow of memory, the significance of personal heritage, renewal, the passing of physical time, desire, passion, and love.
Clara has exhibited widely through the years and her works appear in collections both in the United States and abroad.
