Vita / Lebenslauf:
Drago Dosen, was born in former Yugoslavia (Bosnia) in 1943.
He dedicated himself to the art at his early age in which he showed a great talent. Upon the graduation from the Art High School in Sarajevo, he continued his studies in Belgrade where he graduated from the Academy of the Aplied Arts in 1970.
Drago Dosen concepts link him to the early 1970s generation
of Belgrade painters who turned toward a fundamental experiencing of nature, reinstating the subject theme in their paintings.
In 1975, Drago started exhibiting his work, which resulted in the great interest throughout Yugoslavia and Europe. It didn't take long before his paintings enjoyed great critiques and reviews from his fellow artist and the general public. This made him one of the most recognizable artists on the home soil at the time.
Throughout 20 years of exhibiting in a number of galleries in many countries, Drago managed to sell well over 400 paintings that went to private and public collections.
He had lived and worked in Belgrade until 1995 when he moved to New Zealand where he continued to exhibit his work looking for new challenges and aspirations. His recent work was inspired by the new surroundings which brings different flavour to his extensive portfolio
