The first retrospective exhibition of Miodrag Dada Đurić was opened in the SANU Gallery. Amaret Zidon, the author of the exhibition and the artist's daughter, selected 50 works, many of which are being shown for the first time
The retrospective exhibition "Dado: History of Nature 1953‒2000", authored by Amarant Zidon, the artist's daughter, opened on Sunday at the Gallery of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. It is the first retrospective exhibition Miodrag Dada Đurić in Belgrade. More than 50 works from numerous museum and private collections were presented, some of which were shown for the first time.
The exhibition maps all the stages of the artist's creativity in the period from 1953 to 2000, from the Belgrade period and the painting "Marko Čelebonović i sovac", which marked a turn towards finding his own expression, through his work in France and exhibitions in America, to the last years when graffiti and children's drawings become part of his graphic expression, and murals, sculpture and digital collages are the media that occupy him.
"It had to be held here, in Belgrade, because that's where Dado invented his special style, so recognizable among all, in the mid-1950s, creating two large paintings 'The Cyclist' and 'The Holy Virgin'," she said at the opening of the Amarant exhibition Zidon, and pointed out that "among the exhibited works there are real gems." Such a work is, for example, 'The Deceased Shoemaker' from the XNUMXs, or three hitherto unknown works from the Museum of Contemporary Art, which date from the XNUMXs. These are the works 'Monkey Family', 'Bikini' and 'Carousel'."
Lauren Le Bon, president of the Center Pompidou, whose collection is one of the few abroad that preserves the works of Dado Đurić, pointed out that "Dado is one of the few artists who, like Picasso, managed to invent his own style, inimitable, while constantly reinventing himself." invents".
The exhibition is organized by the SANU Gallery in cooperation with the "Plavo" Foundation and the "For the Serbian People and State" Foundation, and will last until March 2, 2025.
