This group features: Dejan Bogdanovic, Hideto Imai, Manuel Morquecho and more possibly to be announced!

Dejan Bogdanovic was born in 1963 in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Currently lives and works in Florence since 2011. After graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo in 1988, he won a prestigious scholarship at the Studio Arts Centers International (SACI) in Florence in 1990-91. After he experienced war in his country, this blocked his creativity. In 2001, he found and ran a fusion restaurant, which was a usual meeting place for artists. This inspired Dejan to return to painting.

Hideto Imai, born in 1958 in Mie, Ise City, Japan, where he currently lives and works. Graduated from Tokyo Designer Technical School in Nagoya in graphic design. Imai’s works are inspired by the ongoing and ephemeral relationships in his life. He creates bold abstract paintings with striking color and scale to reflect his experiences. “The color gold reflects light”, says Imai, and he crumples and folds the papers in his paintings to benefit from that natural effect. Using techniques of perspective drawing and paper molding, he locates his creative tradition in Japanese culture.

Manuel Morquecho was born in Mexico and currently lives in Washington, D.C. He made the jump to digital photography in 2009. He studied at La Fototeca in Guatemala City and Boston University’s Center for Digital Imaging Arts in Washington DC where he currently resides. His main body of work focuses on exploring the urban landscape, the integration of the face and body into fine art, and fashion photography. Manuel joined the IMF-World Bank International Photographic Society (IPS) in 2013 and was rookie of the year in the 2013-14 season and Photographer of the Year in 2015-16.
