Felucca Nile (2024) Painting by Slobodan Spasojevic (Spaki)

        My name is Slobodan D. Spasojevic-Spaki.  I was born 04/21/1945 in Zrenjanin, Serbia, Yugoslavia.  I completed eight years of school, primary high school and the faculty of architecture in Belgrade.         I have been painting since my youth, since the end of the fifties of the 20th century to today; hui; over sixty years old.  

As Dipl.ing.arch.I am working on four major projects from exJugoslavia

1.   Refinery in Novi Sad

2.   FOB  Novi Belgrade

3.   Adaptation and reconstruction of the old house of Port Zemun

4.   Construction of gas central M'Sila Algeria/collaboration Technique Alger-Yu/.  Since 1992 I have been in retirement. 

I have had a dozen individual exhibitions as well as group exhibitions.  On them, I exhibited drawings, oils on canvas as well as sculptural-mosaic works.  I was rewarded and at the 1995 Yugoslav General Competition "Oils of the Old Masters" I won first place.        

I was influenced by the great masters of Serbian and Yugoslav painting: Paja Jovanović, Uroš Predić and Sava Shumanović;  from European painting to Serbian fresco painting, European Renaissance painting, to impressionism, fauvism, cubism, contemporary abstract and numeric art, and in particular: J. Vermer, V. Gogh, G.Braque A. Matis ...        

By accepting and rejecting certain influences, I formed my own recognizable painting manuscript.         

My guiding thought was: ... " It is important to know how to paint, and the most important thing is to know how to stop. .
