Artists I Like: Goran Gligović

Here's an entry into this series that I probably should have got to sooner. Goran Gligović is one of those currently active, ass-kicking artists I know from social media and some of the books he's worked on... but I don't know much more about him than that.

One thing you'll notice... if you visit Goran's social media looking for Goran artwork... you'll find it, but you'll also find a metric TON of reposts of work by other artists. Get comfortable when you do this because Goran is a great curator of talent, I think. Spending a few minutes scrolling through his page leads me to many creators I didn't know or didn't pay attention to before. I love it when artists are generous with their time and their space, giving room for others.

Goran's work is picture book gothic. That's kind of how I describe it. Design-heavy, a bit psychedelic, and, to my eyes at least, very rich in a 70s aesthetic that I adore. This is work that would elevate Metal Hurlant.
