#45 - Eldin Smajlović, The Immortal Art Podcast: The First Cities

Eldin Smajlović is an artist and author born in Pristina to parents from Srebrenica. He grew up in Sarajevo during Yugoslavia’s collapse where he witnessed the horrors of war. Later, he mastered geometry at art school and painting in the style of old masters. After he was expelled from the Academy of Sarajevo because of his outspoken views, including his defense of homosexuals, he moved to Sweden, learned the language, and studied at the Valand Academy.

Now, through his YouTube channel The Immortal Art, he explores ancient art, history, and critiques postmodernism, advocating for timeless artistry. A published author, Eldin continues to celebrate traditional forms in a modern context.
