Who is this man of many faces? Some say his full name is Esteban Ivan Artucovich. Others say his code name is IvanArt. Legend has it that he was born in Los Angeles from South American parents (Peruvian and Argentinian) of European descent (Italian, Basque and Croatian). Some think that’s just an identity to confuse the masses.


Government files show that due to his mother's migrating frenzies, by age 18 he had attended a dozen different schools and traveled throughout South and North America as well as most of the European continent. Probably, just an attempt to shake us off his tracks.

Scientific studies of his voice lead us to believe IvanArt was raised for the most part in the surf culture of southern California. Slight traces of underlying accents which we think are Spanish and/or Italian, are probably due to the frequent road trips into baja California disguised as a surfer and to his education in the old continent. In fact confidential files reveal that after graduating from Mission Viejo High School, he attended Saddleback College where he managed to get a taste for the arts while working fulltime in a printshop as an inflitrated graphic artist. His desire to perfect his skills took him to Florence, Italy where he studied the arts of graphics leading him later to Milan where he perfected his skills in cartooning at the Scuola del Fumetto (School of cartooning). Contacts with other agents at this local lead him to seek refuge in Switzerland where he furthered his techniques in graphic illustration at the Superior School of Applied Arts in Lugano.


After years of travelling in Europe and Asia and back again to North America rumours have it that he finally settled down in southern Switzerland where he has been free-lancing ever since, helping the needy in thier quest for an original graphic identity. Illustrating is his secret form of expression which he utilizes to spread crypted visual messages which we are still trying to decode.

His present identity is portrayed as a happily married man and father of 2 children. Recent sattelite pictures reveal movements leading us to believe he is residing in a small town in the southernmost valley of Switzerland just north of the Italian border.
