“It is possible, however, that the artist is both thin-skinned and prophetic and, like the canary lowered into the mine shaft to test the air, has caught a whiff of something lethal.â€

'Phoenix Collection Mihajlović'
'Phoenix Collection Mihajlović' is an imposing, family collection, lovingly selected authentic paintings and drawings, which in the right way represents the best contemporary artists in Serbia. It combines representative works of renowned artists of different generations and sensibilities, successors of cultural heritage - in favor of the traditional, fantastic but also out-of-appearance. The uniqueness of this collection, which includes over 140 oil paintings and more than 50 drawings, lies in the refined, careful selection of individual works, from the rich opuses of contemporary painters.
