ALEKSANDAR BEZINOVIC


"Art is my way of understanding the world; each stroke, each color, reflects what I carry inside and what I wish to share with others."
Aleksandar Bezinović was born in 1975 in Split, Croatia, where he began his artistic journey at a young age. He pursued formal education at the School of Applied Arts and Design, specializing in Graphic Design, which laid the foundation for his artistic vision. In 1998, Bezinović graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, where he studied in the Painting Department under the mentorship of Professor Zlatko Keser. This period of academic training helped refine his technical skills and foster his distinctive approach to contemporary art.
Following his academic achievements, Bezinović worked at the Croatian Restoration Institute in the department for wooden polychrome sculptures, where he honed his craft in the restoration and preservation of historic artworks. This experience not only deepened his respect for traditional art forms but also influenced his own creative development. Between 2007 and 2019, Bezinović expanded his practice to include scenic design, collaborating on numerous film and theater projects as a scenic artist and head painter, contributing significantly to the visual storytelling of the stage.
Bezinović has consistently exhibited his work in solo and group exhibitions both in Croatia and internationally, showcasing a wide range of artistic expressions. His practice spans multiple mediums, from traditional painting to large-scale installations, reflecting his deep engagement with the intersections of art, culture, and history. His works often explore themes of human experience, identity, and memory, inviting viewers to engage not only with the visual elements of his art but also with its conceptual depth.
Since 2013, Bezinović has been a member of the Croatian Association of Fine Artists (HZSU), a testament to his prominent position within the Croatian art community. His contribution to the contemporary Croatian art scene has been significant, and his works have earned him recognition as one of the leading figures in the field.
In addition to his achievements in Croatia, Bezinović is now represented by Escat Gallery, which is proud to bring his work to a broader international audience. His continued exploration of complex emotional and intellectual themes ensures that his work resonates with a wide range of viewers, further solidifying his place as a key player in the contemporary art world.
