Christian Satin (born 1946) is a painter born in Brussels.
He began painting with oil on canvas at age nine, first borrowing from impressionist techniques, going through a cubist period, before turning towards Surrealism.
He started exhibiting and selling his early works as a teenager; this part of his career ended in 1966.
His last exhibition was at the Gallery Piranèse together with three other young and upcoming artists.
Satin gradually abandoned painting for architecture, partly because of André Breton’s death, which seemed to mark the end of the Surrealist movement.
He graduated in architecture in 1970 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Liège.
After nearly fifty years without touching a paintbrush, Satin rejoined Surrealism in 2012, giving it a new form: Trans-realism.
