Hadji Boskov, Peter (Skopje, 1. ⅵ 1928) – Sculptor, Graphician, Petar Hadzi Boskov professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Skopje, one of the dominant artists of the Macedonian art scene, especially significant in promoting abstract considerations in the sculpture at the end of The 50’s. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana (1953). He specialized in the Royal College of Fine Arts and the Foreign School (Sweet Szhol) for Fine Arts in London (1959-1960). He had a retrospective exhibition in Skopje (MoCA, 1989). As a participant of a hundred international-P. Hadji Boskov: Part of the installation “Street” (2004) Rodney exhibitions (Biennial in Venice, 1978) includes the Macedonian sculpture in a modern European context. He started making a series of portraits with mild deformation and stylization (Gypsy, 1954). The next few years it has devoted more to the graphics, which works along, with variations from the figure to abstraction, close to sculptural ideas. In 1959 It opens the figurative forms, giving them associative features (composition, 1959). Later, he brings up the organoid form and reduces abstract visions with a rough invoice and hints the enformal practice. When constructing the tors, figures or heads used industrial waste (sculpture ⅲ and ⅳ, 1964). Since 1968 It geometrises the form, with an emphasis on the rhythmic vibration of the vertical (vertical crashed, 1968). Some of these experiences applied them in monumental works (sculpture, 1976, Meighce, Slovenia) and in the reflection cycle (1988).
