Mitar Mitrović – Impressionism

Mar 25 at 8 PM – Mar 31 at 8 PM

Kulturni centar GRAD
Braće Krsmanović 4, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia

Impressionism was born in a famous photographer’s studio who allowed young painters, gathered in the association, to expose their works. The connection between impressionism and photography has remained inseparable from this first exhibition to the present time. The language of photography and painting is very similar and they have been influencing each other for more than one century. The series of photos I’m working on is an experiment and it’s inspired by Impressionism and impressionists, the founders of modern art, continuing the inextricable link between painting and photography.

Mitar Mitrović

Pophor Krsmanac will be part of the exhibition Opening.

On Friday 30.3 Mitar Mitrović will be in the gallery doing Guided Visit and talking about his project.
