Albus No 1

About Albus No 1

The eclectic contemporary artwork of Viktor Mitic has garnered him international attention. The Canadian artist’s recent series of abstract sculptures were inspired by the shapes and colours of paint splatters on his studio floor. Mitic took photos and sketches of the paint marks and, using a computer, re-imagined them as 3-D objects. Albus is carved from pristine white marble…each of the four pieces are stacked and assembled to form an elegant tower. Albus is a Latin term that means ‘white.’

“You have to learn all the time, there’s no way you can say at whatever age that you know it all because you don’t.” Viktor Mitic

Viktor Mitic was born in Serbia, emigrated to Canada and earned a BFA from the University of Toronto in 1995 with studies in art history at Sheridan College. He has exhibited his post-Pop inspired paintings, prints and colourful abstract sculptures at numerous international venues, notable among them Muramatsu Gallery in Tokyo, The Armory Show in NYC, Art Chicago and Toronto. His work is held in corporate, private, and public collections.
