The drawings
Novi Sad, 1938
He began drawing cartoons dealing with political and social themes at a young age. In 1967 he won the Palme d'Or for a series of anti-war drawings. Precisely on that occasion he met the famous cartoonist Jerry Robinson (The Joker) which led him to emigrate to the United States, to New York, where he lived and worked for twenty years, so much so that his name was included among the best cartoonist for The New York Times. From drawing he then moves on to animated films and produces short films. In 2014 he returned to his homeland and today lives in Belgrade.
ASSOCIAZIONE SALONE INTERNAZIONALE UMORISMO
The event could not have lasted for over fifty years without the contribution of numerous "volunteers" and "precepts" who brought enthusiasm and desire to do whatever the task received, with nineteenth-century shifts! From the choice of the drawings, to the preparation of the panels (always the same every year), to the posting with various pins of the hundreds of drawings up to the presence on stage.
We therefore want to thank, in absolutely no order but with equal contributions, all those who come to mind, apologizing if we miss some, but we are ready to fix it!
