Predrag Pajdic Biography

Predrag Pajdic is one of the most popular and richest Artist who was born on September 10, 1965 in Slavonski Brod, Brod-Posavina, Croatia. Predrag Pajdic, a London-based artist and curator was born in 1965. His work has been exhibited at international solo and group exhibitions. He is also the editor and founder of “The Pandorian,” an art photography blog. He is also a writer and lecturer on fashion, contemporary art and photography.

Pajdic debuted “Hail, O Hail, Liberty!” in 2011 on a visual narrative about Greece. This earned him international attention for his century-old costumes and local designer wear. Pajdic says that Athens appears chaotic at first, but you soon realize there is a way out and everything works in its favor.

Pajdic is forthcoming in interviews but ultimately rejects the idea of being defined by one thing. He once told an interviewer that he has “always rebelled against the idea of specializing in one thing and doing it for the rest of one’s life. There’s nothing wrong with it, of course, and we do need experts, but I believe we are capable of learning many different things. Dealing with stereotypes has always been very hard for me. If I had to state one profession for myself, then I really don’t know what that would be.” Pajdic’s subjects are either long term friends, or newly made friends for life. “Sometimes I could be inspired by a book I read, or a person I meet. Most of the time it happens in a moment when I meet a person who would be in my image. It is almost like alchemy between two people, a chemistry between me on one side of a camera and a person I shoot. Sometimes I would have a starting idea but end up shooting something completely different. I often leave things to the very last moment. Without much controlling and planning there is a space in which magic can happen.” Pajdic has said his inspirational sources include Leonardo da Vinci, Christian Dior, Cristóbal Balenciaga and Jean Cocteau.

“When I first started out it was kind of hard to part with your work, but nowadays it’s all about sharing. We’re living in tough times and if I can contribute 0.00000001 points of beauty to this world, I’d want to do it as fast as I can, and nothing can beat the internet for speed. It’s a spectacular platform for artistic output and you don’t need to wait for the galleries to show your work. You can do it on your own right here, right now.”

Pajdic’s art can be seen at the British Museum in London as well as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. He was also a judge for the prestigious South African contemporary arts award Spier Contemporary 2007. His work has been exhibited internationally in solo and group shows, such as: “Delay”, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen Rotterdam (2004); “To whom it may Concern”, nn Foundation for Contemporary Art Rotterdam (2004). “The Presidency,” Exit Art New York (2004). “Memory,” Salina Art Center Salina (2004). “Garden Castle Vault, Southampton (2004). Lingering Whispers was a London show featuring 40 international artists looking for creative expressions in a time of global economic crisis. It was curated by Pajdic in 2010. A total of 20 Victorian glass plates were found in the attic of a Texas home in 2011, USA. After being cleaned of 100 years of dust, the plates revealed images of children taken in a portrait studio. Alexandra Eldridge, a Santa Fe artist, collaborated with Pajdic on a project called “There is No Such Thing as The End.” This project reimagined the images from vintage Chinese scrolls using a variety of printing, collage, painting, and drawing. The project was described by Eldridge, Pajdic as a way of bridging the worlds of the living and the dead.
