About
Why this artist matters now
Dado, born Miodrag Djuric, is a Montenegrin draughtsman whose drawings combine figurative abstraction with gestural intensity. Working primarily in ink and charcoal, his practice emerged from the post-war Yugoslav avant-garde, balancing expressionist mark-making with compositional discipline. Based in Cetinje, Montenegro, Dado's work engages the tension between representation and pure gesture, sustaining a rigorous formal vocabulary across decades of practice.
