Serbian visual artist Goran Djurovic´ studied painting at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts in former East Germany, and has been based in Berlin since 1980. Published to accompany an eponymous exhibition at the Caermersklooster in Ghent, this book offers a compelling introduction to the artist, whose paintings mix the bare, grim solitude of Edward Hopper with the absurd theatre of Michaël Borremans. In them, strange and uncanny figures find themselves in unfathomable situations. Eric Rinckhout and Bernard Dewulf outline valuable points of entry into the artist’s enigmatic and often oppressive world, which is expanded upon through over 100 illustrations.
