Bio

At the time of his birth in 1974, Slavko Krunić, a painter to be, set his eyes on Belgrade. At a fateful moment, he decided to study Painting at the Belgrade Faculty of Fine Arts, where he got his Master’s degree. In 2000, he became a member of Association of Serbian Artists. He has exhibited his paintings at numerous group and over thirty individual exhibitions in the country and abroad. The paintings of Slavko Krunic have found their way to the public and private collections of art collectors throughout the world. His illustrations have also found their place in a great number of books and magazines. He published his own book “Satiricons” in 2010, with French writer Elodie Pinel. The cooperation with the weekly magazine Politikin Zabavnik represents the crown of a long-dreamt dream of Slavko Krunić. Together with the writer Mirjana Ognjanović, he published two books, ''Mausoleum'' (Altanova) and ''Insomnia for two'' (Booka). 
He illustrated characters for the opera Werhter of the National Theatre in Belgrade.
