VIVIAN BLACK (version 4)


From an early age, Vivian Black had been unusually interested in the horror genre, in all of its facets. She was inspired by the highest “monsters” of horror movies, like Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney, Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Jeffrey Combs and Robert Englund, (the three latter actors, into the present time).Those made a huge impact in her life, which defined in an absolute way her artistic tendency towards this genre.

At the age of six, she wrote three short horror novels, (still unpublished to the present time), using a baroque and ancestral language, which was labeled as obsolete into the beginning of twentieth century.

She showed those Manuscripts to her Language teacher of elementary school, and then he read some paragraphs of her stories to the rest of the students. The teacher had defined Vivian as “The Argentine Mary Shelley”; he was taken aback and confused by the girl’s strange talent. As recognition for her literary attributes, he gave her a copy of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", to honor her in front of the other pupils.

Following her inspiration, Vivian created more horror stories, but now illustrated with allusive sketches to each one of them.

In her adolescence, she took acting lessons with a personal tutor. She was a part of some theatrical representations in her neighborhood and school, standing out notably for her talent over the rest of her classmates.

Vivian's musical inclination began parallel with her first literary essays. She liked writing in the solitude of her room, without pronouncing a word for hours, listening to classical music on her favorite radio station; operas, symphonies, concerts, etc. Her favourite composers were Modest Moussorsky, Wolfang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Johann Sebastián Bach and George Friedrich Haendel, among others.

During her teenage years she decided to learn how to play the keyboard, with a basic synthesizer, without knowledge of how to read write sheet music. She played simple melodies, (improvised by her), being guided by classical music style. In that way, she discovered her aptitude to create music of any style she wanted, but in a very simplified way.

Vivian Black and her art had always stayed together as one, from her sweet childhood, until the hard present times.
