Vejzović Munir

Munir Vejzović was born at Doboj on 29 January 1945. He spent his childhood and completed elementary school is his native town and then moved to Sarajevo, where he enrolled in the Secondary Sc hoo I of Applied Arts (Department of Painting). There he first came into contact (through reproductions) with the works of Josip Račić, Miroslav Kraljević and Vladimir Becić. Upon graduation in 1965 he enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb (Department of Painting). Among the courses that he studied there was an elective course in graphic arts taught by Professor Frano Baće.
Studying under Professors Ljubo Ivančić, Ivan Režek, Krsto Hegedušić, Vjekoslav Parač and Antun Mezdjić, he became acquainted with modern Croatian painting.
In the winter of 1968 he interrupted his studies and left for Paris carried by youthful restlessness and the passionate desire to experience at first hand the modern movements in this metropolis of art. However, the turbulent political situation and students’ unrest prompted him to cut short his stay in Pari s and return home. He resumed his studies at the Academy and graduated under Professor Antun Mezdjić in 1970. It was about that time that Vejzović began his fruitful cooperation and friendship with the critic and publicist Josip Depolo and, somewhat later, with the art collector and publisher Božo Biškupić.
