Scroll down for english

Budimir je likovni stvaralac koji je radio na mestu nadzornog tehničara u pančevačkoj Rafineriji. Rođen je 1949. godine u Pačarađima, u opštini Cetinje/ Crna Gora. Živeo u Pančevu, blizu Beograda.

Karikaturom je počeo da se bavi još u detinjstvu. Isprobao se u skoro svim likovnim tehnikama ali u crtežu nalazi potpunu slobodu. U poslednjih petnaestak godina radi crteže koje započinje nesvesnim i automatizovanim potezima olovkom na papiru koje nakon prvih antropomorfnih i zoomorfnih asocijacija oblikuje u konačan izraz. Jaki unutrašnji ritmovi i linearnost stvaraju i prikazuju najčešće ljudske glave iz kojih se rastežu, prepliću i upliću čudnovata bića nalik ribama, pticama, zmajevima i sl. Takođe, Budimir veoma često njegovo "životinjsko carstvo" smešta u pejzaž želeći da ga na taj način što više približi realnosti. Karikaturalnost se provlači kroz neke radove ali više u funkciji grotesknog što daje posebnu draž Budimirovom crtežu.

Do sada je imao 10 samostalnih izložbi u Pančevu, Zrenjaninu, Beogradu, Novom Sadu i Podgorici.

Od 2015. godine je član Udruženja Art Brut Serbia.

Budimir is an artist who worked as a supervisory technician at the Pančevo Refinery. He was born in 1949 in Pačarađe, in the municipality of Cetinje/Montenegro. Lived in Pancevo, near Belgrade.

He started doing caricature in his childhood. He has tried almost all art techniques, but he finds complete freedom in drawing. In the last fifteen years, he has been making drawings that he begins with unconscious and automated pencil strokes on paper, which he shapes into a final expression after the first anthropomorphic and zoomorphic associations. Strong internal rhythms and linearity create and depict usually human heads from which strange creatures like fish, birds, dragons, etc. stretch, intertwine, and intertwine. Also, Budimir very often places his "animal kingdom" in the landscape, wanting to bring it as close to reality as possible. Caricaturity runs through some works, but more in the function of the grotesque, which gives a special charm to Budimir's drawing.

So far, he has had 10 solo exhibitions in Pančevo, Zrenjanin, Belgrade, Novi Sad and Podgorica.

Since 2015, he has been a member of the association Art Brut Serbia.

Radovi iz serije Buđenje zla:

"Nesreću koju smo imali 1999., bombardovanje Nato alijanse, doživljavao sam najviše kroz brigu o porodici. Tada sam vodio i dnevnik i crtao, ljut i sa strepnjom čekao novi zvuk sirene koja nas je takođe plašila. Tada sam radio u Rafineriji koja je više puta bombardovana, gde su izginuli naši drugari s posla..."

Napomena: neki radovi su rađeni 2001. godine kao posledica posttraumatskih osećanja.

Works from the Evil Awakening series:

"The accident we had in 1999, the bombing of the NATO alliance, I experienced mostly through taking care of my family. During that period, I also kept a diary and drew, angry and anxiously waiting for the new sound of the siren, which also scared us. At that time, I worked in the Refinery that was bombed several times, where our friends from work perished..."

Note: some works were done in 2001 because of post-traumatic feelings.
