SLOGI
To the citizen of eternity
Scientific monograph tributed to Dušan Jovanović (1939–2021) who was one of the most important, perhaps even the most important creators of Slovenian theatre in the last half century. His contribution to the modernisation of theatre art in Slovenia is decisive; as are his contributions to the high fitness, semantic and artistic relevance of the entire field of performing arts in our country.

Monograph Design
Bold color contrast and clear lay-out
A fundamental and challenging task for any designer is determining how to represent a scientific monograph dedicated to such a multifaceted and exceptional theatre creator.
I focused on the contrast between black and white, darkness and light, while adding red to the cover, symbolizing the author's inimitable passion for theatre and life.

”The stage is the world, reflecting all of its facets. So, the book about one of the most important creators of Slovenian theatre should not prettify per se. It must offer a frame for the scientific as well as artistic expression of theatrical and other witnesses to Jovanović's rich heritage.”
