Mića Popović

Miodrag "Mića" Popović (12 June 1923 – 22 December 1996) was a Serbian painter,[1] experimental filmmaker and one of the major figures of the Yugoslav Black Wave.

[8] Among the Scenes Paintings, one of the more notable ones was "May 1, 1985,"[9] which memorialized events surrounding an alleged attack on a farmer in Kosovo named Đorđe Martinović.

[12] Cultural event Mićini i Verini dani (Mića and Vera's Days) was established in Loznica on June 12, 2001 and has been held annually since then.

[13] A significant collection of his painting is exhibited in Mića Popović and Vera Božičković-Popović Gallery, located in the artist's hometown of Loznica.

The gallery artworks span over five decades of his work, starting with Great-great-grandfather’s House in Loznica (1936), when Mića was only thirteen years old.
