BIOGRAPHY:

Dalibor Talajic was born in 1973. in Rijeka, and currently lives and works in Rovinj. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna in 1999, which left a significant impact on his photography. In the beginning, as a painter, photographs were not something of great interest for him. However, given the circumstances, in 2001, due to business, he started photographing. Today, nine years later, the role in his life previously held by painting has been completely substituted by photography. His motives are often Istrian small towns and villages: the fishermen, boats, city silhouettes, passengers, old folks. In addition, Talajić also does concert photography, which is why the protagonists of his works are often great musicians such as BB King, Kimmo Pohjonen, Gibonni and Miroslav Tadić. It is exactly for the concert photography that he received several international awards such as the Lumix Award 2010 and the International Photography Award 2010. Moreover, his photograph Isabel’s third eye has recently been included in the 1x.com’s 2010 Photobook. Although so far he has participated in many festivals, this is his first solo exhibition.
