Biography
After 30 years as an award-winning Art Director in the advertising industry, Felix Burgos is taking on a new challenge: The world of fine art. It is a natural transition, considering he grew up in Williamsburg, one of the nation’s leading artist communities. Despite a demanding career, Felix devoted weekends and nights, exploring and evolving his artistic style.
He has worked at some of the most respected and creative agencies, including Ogilvy, FCB, and McCann-Erickson where he created the “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter campaign. He has won several advertising awards, including 3 Clios for his TV, and Print work.
As an abstract impressionist, Felix interprets everyday scenes using sharp angles and colors that are startling in their simplicity, yet filled with context and depth. Felix describes his work as having constant fluidity. “These images reflect the ebb and flow of life.”
