Biography
Mihailović was born in Pančevo, Belgrade oblast. Since 1946, he studied in the class of professor Ivan Tabaković at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Arts in Belgrade. One year later, Mihalović went to Zadar and was one of young Serbian painters who founded the art commune Zadarska grupa. The group comprised also young and gifted painters such as Mića Popović, Ljubinka Jovanović, Petar Omčikus, Kossa Bokšan and Vera Božičković. He worked and lived in Zadar from March to August 1947. In 1951, he was one of the founders of the art group Eleven (Jedanaestorica grupa) in Belgrade. Mihailović left Yugoslavia and went to Paris with his wife Ljubinka Jovanović in May 1952. For the next decades, he lived and worked alternately in Paris and Belgrade. In 1985, Mihailović was elected member of Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. He died in Paris.[1][2][3]
