Marko Dumnić was born in Cetinje, where he completed his undergraduate studies at the Faculty of Fine Arts. He pursued his postgraduate studies at the Albertina Academy of Fine Arts in Turin. For Dumnić, painting is a true calling; he sees it as the writing of life. His work embodies his most profound emotions. Having spent parts of his life in various regions of Italy, he developed a deep knowledge of art history. His artistic journey unfolds in cycles, from symbolism to formalism, while remaining passionately devoted to plein-air painting. The spatial dimension and sense of place are essential in his work. Dumnić has presented his paintings in numerous group exhibitions and one solo show, continuously seeking ways to enliven his practice and connect it to the needs of contemporary life.
