Biography
He had this ability to combine colors to create a special vibration that gave the illusion of movement. (Marie-Andrée Levasseur)
Three major themes can be found in his work; man within the isolation of nature, the city and railway stations. He paints a story around each one of these themes, and they compliment another. The city provides a stable, populous environment; the woods a return to self, freedom and appreciation of time; the train a link between the two.

Serge Brunoni was born in 1938 in Lagny-en-Barrois (France). Serge Brunoni leaves school to work in a factory at the age of 14 in a difficult post-WWII environment. After his military service in French Equatorial Africa, he returns to France where he misses Africa’s open spaces. This pushes Brunoni to leave for Canada in 1963.

Serge Brunoni had no idea which cities were involved, but when he landed at the port of Montreal with fifteen dollars in his pocket, the Frenchman quickly understood that it was not in this jungle that he wanted to drop his suitcases. He settled in Trois-Rivieres

On Christmas Eve 1969, his wife gave him a wooden box filled with paint tubes and brushes, the perfect gift for the artist she discovered in him. “I drew all my youth, as soon as I knew how to hold a pencil in fact. But I didn’t know I had this talent. ”
