Biography

Born in Canada and classically trained in Europe, Greg Deda is a contemporary artist whose work bridges tradition and innovation. His career began in restoration, where — sponsored by private patrons — he restored centuries-old iconography paintings across Italy, applying 24-karat gold leaf to sacred works of art. This rare foundation instilled in him a deep respect for craftsmanship and an understanding of art’s enduring value.

For much of his life, Greg Deda remained a hidden master — a lifelong emerging artist whose technical brilliance was matched by quiet discipline. His work carries the influence of classical composition yet bursts with the emotion and experimentation of modern abstraction. When Aurum Fox discovered his work, it was clear that Greg Deda was not simply another name in the art world, but a once-in-a-generation talent ready for wider recognition.

Today, his pieces are exhibited exclusively through Aurum Fox Gallery in Chelsea, London, where they have drawn growing demand from serious collectors and increasing critical attention. With each new exhibition, his reputation continues to grow — not only as an artist, but as a symbol of what true focus and belief in one’s craft can achieve.
