Tito Lee (aka. Antej Farac, *1972 in former Yugoslavia) is a German interdisciplinary artist, director, musician and DJ, who lives and works in Switzerland.

Biography[edit]

Tito Lee was born 1972 as Antej Farac, in Mostar, former Yugoslavia. He grew up in a artist family and was influenced and couched in his adolescence by many artist friends of his parents, especially by Halil Tikveša and Nada Pivac. He studied parallel at the Sarajevo Film Academy as well as at Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo until 1992 when he was forced to stop his studies. Immediately after the Bosnian War broke out, he moved to Munich and 1994 began his studies at the University of Television and Film Munich where he earned his degree as a movie director and engineer for film and television.[1] [2] [3] His occupation with two Icons of his Childhood, former Yugoslavian President Tito and martial artist Bruce Lee, have lead to his nickname Tito Lee, that he later accepted as his artist name. Since 2006 he is Creative Director and CEO of the Swiss agency El Patrol Art GmbH.[4]

Career[edit]

During his time in Munich, Tito Lee realized several film projects, worked as director and editor for various music-videos and commercials, produced more than 200 trailers for film and TV productions and acted as a screenwriter and dramaturgical consultant for ARD, BR, and ZDF productions such as “Tatort” and “Der Fahnder.” In 1998 his unconventional commercial “Zukunft passiert”, created for the electronic retail chain “Saturn”, entered the official competition for Cannes Golden Lion. Acting as a creative director for various image campaigns for leading broadcasting companies, such as SKY, PREMIERE, KIRCH GROUP, MTV, TAURUS and ProSieben Media AG, Tito absorbed the language of popular culture. This resulted in his debut "Death of Techno" - a post-neo realistic vision of the turn of the century.[5] [6] [7] In parallel to his Media Work, Tito Lee engaged in different projects as a musician and DJ. With a special interest in experimental, progressive sounds he composed on commission as well as for his own projects and film-scores. He first gained attention as a cross-media artist with the electronic free art collaboration with Turkish Artist Bülent Kullukcu named “Karpati Turist” (later known as “Electric Lounge Orchestra”), which premiered at the Einstein Art Center during the MUG experimental electronic music festival.[8] [9] In his next work HOTEL ANNELIE, he created an artistic archive that includes a 111 minute film, associated sculptures, video installations, large format light boxes, photographs and pop art series.[10] [11] [12] The movie ANNELIE was released separately in 2012 [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] and has been shown and honored at renowned film festivals all over the world [19] [20] [21][22] [23] [24] [25] [26], such as Locarno,[27] [28] [29] [30] [31] Busan,[32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] Hof [39] [40] [41] [42] and Vancouver.[43] [44] [45] [46] [47] In 2016 Tito Lee also became president of the Swiss non profit organisation “FLUX Art Festival”, an international festival for sustainable “art & science projects”.[48] [49]

Style[edit]

In his work Tito Lee explores the limits between technology, Zeitgeist, reality and fiction. Another recurring theme within Lee’s work is the depiction of transformational processes in humans, society and the collective consciousness. As CEO of el Patrol Art GmbH, Tito Lee strives to combine the fields of art and science as a catalyst for innovation and ecological progress.
