SAVA SEKULIC – THE POWER OF VISION

Sava Sekulić, an authentically self-taught artist who with the strength, originality and perserverance of his artistic instinct was able to reach far ahead of his time. He counts today amongst the most important of the world classics of unconventional art, that art which emerged from outside the mainstream currents of the officially recognised academic and professional art. Even though the artist in a certain way determined his own place by adding the pseudonym samouk (self-taught) to his name, his works at the same time are part of a much wider spectrum, from self-taught artistic expression and naïve art, grounded in traditional values, to the absolutely unrestricted freedom of Art Brut and outsider art.
