Predrag Djordjevic

1952 Born in Belgrade,Yugoslavia The use of the stretcher as the surface upon which the painted image appears is unique in my work. For centuries, the stretcher has been the unseen support, used to form the framework behind the canvas. In making use of the stretcher, traditionally the bare bones of the painted image, as the surface of my paintings, I have made the wooden stretcher worthy of our consideration. At the same time I am raising question of the appropriate surface for a painted work.
