The author of this work is Slobodan Peladić, known in Serbian art (as well as in that of the former Yugoslavia art) of the late 80s as one of the protagonists of the New Informel, of the painting of "controlled gesture", as it was called after one of the exhibitions at which it was presented at the time.
Today, after everything that has happened, it is clear that the painting of the New Informel of the 80s, including Peladic's work of the time, was an indirect but indubitable premonition of the coming cataclysm, a sign of the tortuous existential state which nobody, not even art or artists in these spaces, could avoid in the early 90s.
