Biography of
Francisco, F. J. J. C. Masseria
The artist Francisco, F. J. J. C. Masseria was born on April 7th, 1926 in Parana, capital of Province of Entre Rios, Argentina. Masseria’s parents were Italian. Although none of his family were artists, Masseria evidenced a talent for art when he ws quite young, drawing color pencil portraits of his grade school friends. He began painting with oil paints when he was about 13 and progressed rapidly as an artist. His first achievement came at the age of fourteen when exhibiting at the Salon Annuale of Entre Rios he earned his first gold medal. His father, Joseph, encourage his son to pursue his talent as a ‘self taught’ artist. Masseria’s paintings did not gain recognition in Argentina. “I was known locally but not nationally” he said during a visit to the USA. “The main problem was that I was a figurative painter, and the vogue was abstract art.” “I never believed in fads in art,” he said. “When I started to paint in Argentina people would say, ‘Francisco, why don’t you paint abstract art?’ I did not paint it because I did not feel it. Yet around 1970 I started to paint abstract art because it was within me at that time, not because it was the right thing to do at the moment.”
