He was interested throughout his life in the style of Cubism, whose founders were Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. The painter was born in 1881 as the second of four children. His family owned Berry Hill, a large estate in Campbell County, which was farmed by 3,000 slaves. Patrick's family was rich. He enjoyed the best education and worked as a real estate agent at a young age. In his spare time he took painting lessons at the Art Club of Richmond. His first paintings must have been created around the turn of the century.
At 21, Bruce moved to New York to learn more about painting techniques from major artists. Among them was the successful landscape and portrait painter William Merritt Chase, who developed American Impressionism. After two years he moved on to Europe. He lived for almost 30 years in Paris, the capital of France. Here he first enrolled at the famous painting school of Henri Matisse and came into contact with modern painting for the first time. Matisse is, by the way, one of the most important artists of Classic Modernism worldwide. He was also a pioneer of Fauvism, an artistic movement of the 20th century.
Later he became a member of the Parisian Salon d'Automne, a counter-movement to the rather conservative Salon de Paris. The members organized a large art exhibition every year in autumn. Patrick Henry Bruce also exhibited his new paintings, which he had created over the year. During these years his works were assigned to Orphic Cubism. However, he himself never joined a particular school in public. His mature works show geometric forms and evenly applied, matt colours. Today, only a few works of art by the American painter have survived to posterity. In the art scene, it is said that Bruce was a very self-critical artist who destroyed many of his paintings. In the 1930s Bruce returned to America. In 1936 he took his own life in New York. He died when he was only 55 years old. His art remains unforgotten, as do the 100 works of art that have been preserved for posterity to this day.
