Vladimir Becić (1886–1954) was a Croatian painter, best known for his early work in Munich, which had a strong influence on the direction of modern art in Croatia.〔 Becić studied painting in Munich at the prestigious Academy of Arts along with Oskar Herman, Miroslav Kraljević and Josip Račić. This group of Croatian artists are known as the Munich Circle or Munich Four, and are very important figures in Croatian art of the 20th century.〔 After Munich, Becić spent 2 years studying and working in Paris before returning to Zagreb in 1910. During the First World War, Vladimir Becić worked as a war artist on the Salonika Front producing a series of images of the soldiers and wounded. Following the end of the war, he spent time in a village near Sarajevo, where he painted landscapes and rural subjects in a style that used colour and tonal variations to depict form and space. Becić was a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb (1924–1947), and a member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts from 1934. ==Biography== Vladimir Becić was born in Slavonski Brod 1 June 1886. He initially studied law in Zagreb and attended private art school of Menci Clement Crnčić and Bela Čikoš Sesija. In 1905, he gave up his law studies for art, moving to Munich where he first studied with Heinrich Knirr, and then at the Academy of Arts. In 1909, he went to Paris where he enrolled in the Academy La Grande Chaumiére and worked as a draftsman at the magazine "''Le Rire''".〔 He returned to Zagreb in 1910, where he staged his first solo exhibit.〔 Becić then worked in Osijek, Belgrade and Bitolj. During the First World War he was a war correspondent and artist for the magazine "''L'Illustration''" on the Salonika front, creating a series of images of the soldiers and the wounded. In 1919, he held his second solo exhibit, also in Zagreb.〔 From 1919 to 1923, Vladimir Becić lived and worked in the village of Blažuj near Sarajevo, producing a series of oils and watercolours of landscapes, peasants and shepherds that show an increasingly mature style of tonal painting using colour forms for rounded volume and space. He then moved back to Zagreb, where he taught in the Academy of Fine Arts (Croatian: Akademija likovnih umjetnosti) (1924–1947).〔 In 1930, Vladimir Becić, together with Ljubo Babić and Jerolim Miše formed "''Group Three''" (Grupa trojice).〔 Becić became a member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in 1934, at that time called the Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Art.〔 Vladimir Becić died in Zagreb 24 May 1954. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vladimir Becić」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
