Neša Paripović

Neša Paripović was born in 1942 in Belgrade, Serbia. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Belgrade and in Zagreb and participated in conceptualist groups. Following an engagement in geometric abstract painting in the early 1970s, his enduring interest has been deconstructing the identity of the artist, a process that continues in his current work, which focuses on the site of the body, painting, sound, and architecture. Often mentioned as one of the key protagonists of conceptual art in Serbia, he has exhibited at Centre Pompidou, Paris (2010) and the American University Museum, Washington, DC (2009).
