Having the reputation of being the best painter in Europe, he has participated in over 600 theater pieces. He is the author of the ceremonial curtain of the Zagreb Puppet Theater and has also created the world’s unofficially largest painting – commissioned by the Bavarian Theater in Munich. He has collaborated with the world’s greatest artists and designers.
His most important exhibition took place at the Brioni islands in 2001 and was attended by a great number of European jet-setters. The exhibition, titled ‘Polo opus’, was pronounced to the best in the world by the British and American media. The most significant sets he has authored are King Lear (Brioni), Tartuffe (Gavella, Zagreb) and others. He is the recipient of numerous awards worldwide, most notably: Florence – third prize for large format, New York – second prize for contemporary portrait, and Barcelona – second prize for drawing.
By the fact that he is famously based on being the best European painter on the scene, by the order of Bavarian theater in Munich, Medvesek created unofficially the biggest painting in the world – theatrical curtain for the show of Bavarian opera ‘Ludvig II’, made on the surface of 500 square meters.
Artwork created by Damir Medvesek has his own form, content, and skill behind his work refers to cultural art made by old and skilled European artists. In the world of alienation, exaggeration, and pornography, the return of classical tradition and their postulates can be interpreted as an author trying to escape from his harsh reality. I think that his impulses are much more subtitle.
