[edit] Art
Selman Trtovac belongs to the generation of artists who have articulated their artistic language in Belgrade and Düsseldorf during the last decade of 20th century. At the beginning of nineties, he was active in Belgrade Students Cultural Center. At 1993. he moved to Düssseldorf where he continued his artistic path of development in the art class of Klaus Rinke. Education acquired at Belgrade Faculty of Art, where the traditional artistic techniques had been cheriched, proved to be a good background for the further education at the Düsseldorf Art Academy whose programs had been faunded on the modern artistic experience of the sixties and seventies. Working with two famous artists-professors exerted a significant influence on this artist, both on his artistic language and his comprehension the essence of art. Those are Klaus Rinke, as a German conceptual artist, and Jannis Kounellis as the importatnt artist in the frame of Italian art movement Arte Povera. Sublimation of those two influences – academic understanding the fine arts and also the heritage of Moderna, produced original artistic language which expresses simbolic forms that comes from concrete existential expirience. The development of his artistic expression is obvious in the series of his works which have been realized and exibited from 1997. till today.
