MIRKOVIC Petar
Bio
Petar Mirkovic (1978) comes from Novi Sad, where he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts. As a student, he received the Academy’s Annual Award for Sculpture. He won the 2004 Mangelos Award of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Belgrade, and the 2005 Henkel Award for Modern Drawing (Vienna). Petar has been artist-in-residence at numerous institutions, including the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (Kiev) and Art Phalanx (Vienna). He has participated in group exhibitions organized by the Palais de Tokyo Hype Gallery (Paris, 2004), Röda Sten (Gothenburg, 2006), Zerynthia (Rome, 2007), Saatchi & Saatchi (London, 2007), Tom Christoffersen Gallery (Copenhagen, 2008) and Kunstlerhaus (Vienna, 2014). Petar presented his artwork in solo exhibitions at Cité international des Arts (Paris, 2004), Remont Gallery (Belgrade, 2010) and Lukas Feichtner Gallery (Vienna, 2013). In addition, he has taken part in numerous art fairs in Europe, Asia and North America.
Playing with shadows, reflections, textures, and glare of street lamps and car headlights, Mirkovic creates a kind of exciting urban mythology. His works are extremely attractive and leave a strong impression on the observer. Although his drawings are in charcoal on paper, they give the impression of being black-and-white photographs.
