Ivan Picelj
was a contemporary Croatian painter,
sculptor and graphic designer.
Category: Intro
Picelj developed a specific variation of
geometric abstraction in Croatian painting
by using primary colours and by reducing
the shapes to geometric elements.
The multiplication of the basic plastic unit
within a regular grid is one of Picelj’s
trademark procedures.
Picelj’s works are part of the
museum collections worldwide
and his works also belong
to many private collections.
Picelj was one of the founders
and members of the group Exat 51
and the New Tendencies movement.
