Serbian Art
 |
Although the birth of modern art did not cause the creation of Naive
art, it contributed with its anti-academism to the recognition and
acceptance of that art. However, in Serbia as well, this art was
accompanied by many questions and dilemmas from the very beginning:
from disagreement about its terminological determination (original,
folk, primitive, self-taught, rurally amateurish, naive...) to its
essential definition. All of that could be discussed, but the
freshness and originality of Naive art can not be disputed whatsoever.
It has its aesthetic existence and spiritual role.

Реч аутора
Сва моја захвалност Творцу који ми даде снаге да
величам Његово Стварање, и што ме створи у овoм свету да могу да Га
поздравим на овај начин.
Хвала господи која се трудише да ме упознају са светом. Хвала и кући која то омогући.

Resisting urbanism
 As a response to the pressures of the snare-city walls, the colorful
landscape of Serbia is found on my paintings. The forests of Rajac, the
sites surrounding Morava, the pines of Zlatibor, without people and
timeless, are constant motives.
I call you to get to know nature the way I see it through the veil of
lyrical handwriting.

Miodrag Mica Popovic was born in Loznica on June 12th, 1923. His first
exhibition was in 1940, as part of the 13th Autumn Exhibtion of
Belgrade Artists, in the "Cvijeta Zuzoric" gallery. At that time, he was
a seventh grade student at an all-boys high school. He enrolled at the
Academy of Sciences and Arts in 1946 (in the class of prof. Ivan Tabakovic).
In the spring of 1947, together with Vera Bozickovic, Kosom Boksan,
Ljubinka Jovanovic, Milorad Bata Mihailovic, Petar Omcikus, and Mile
Andrejevic, he organized an artists' communal living experiment in Zadar,
because of which he was expelled from the Academy.
His first solo exhibition was at the "Cvijeta Zuzoric" gallery. In the foreword
to the exhibition catalog he explained his views on the freedom of expression.
He lived in Paris between 1951 and 1954. In 1956, he became a member of the
society of Serbian artists "Lada." He became an associate member of the
Serbian Academy of Science and Art in 1978, and a full member in 1984. He
