Nedeljko Dragić

Nedeljko Dragić (born 13 September 1936) is a Croatian director, animator, cartoonist and illustrator.

Since 1953 he has been a cartoonist and had exhibitions and published a book called Lexicon for Illiterate People in 1966.

Since 1965 he has owned the rights to the movie Elegy and has become one of the most important representatives of the Zagreb School of Animation.

He is the creator of the award-winning films Tamer of Wild Horses (1966), Perhaps Diogenes (1968), The Days Are Going (1969), Tup Tup (1972),[1] The Diary (1974),[2][3] Put k susjedu (1982), Pictures of Memories (1989) and others, as well as a series of short films (Per aspera ad astra, Striptiz, 1969), of which he was the scriptwriter, cartoonist and animator.

He developed a distinctive visual style in which animation grows from the caricatures with pronounced symbolic elements, and linking art and poetic elements usually varies the theme of the absurdity of man's fate in modern civilization.
