Arsenije Jovanovic

Arsenije Jovanovic (1932–2010) was a Serbian experimental filmmaker and sound artist associated with the underground avant-garde culture of socialist Yugoslavia. Working from Belgrade, he occupied a marginal and often embattled position within Yugoslav cultural life, producing work that combined film, sound, and performance in ways that challenged official cultural norms and the dominant aesthetic tendencies of the period.

His films and sound works drew on Surrealism, Dada, and the broader international avant-garde tradition, applying those influences within the specific social and political context of socialist-era Yugoslavia.
