Dzamonja behind abstractions in steel

Template:Titlelacksdiacritics Dušan Džamonja (born January 31 1928 in Strumica, Macedonia) is a modern sculptor from Croatia.

Džamonja's work shows a tendency toward technical and formative experiments, reducing form to the dynamic and intense shapes of symbolical meaning. This study of new forms has led him to use new materials, especially steel and glass, in his sculptures.

Džamonja studied at the Academy of Fine Arts at the University of Zagreb under the professors Vanja Radauš, Fran Kršinić and Antun Augustinčić, all notable authors. He built ateliers in Zagreb in 1953, Vrsar, Istria (since 1970) and Brussels, Belgium (since 1987).

He is a recipient of numerous awards and is an academician with both Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts and Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts. He currently lives near his three ateliers in Zagreb, Vrsar and Brussels.
