Viktor Mitic is a Serbian-born Canadian and American painter and sculptor with a BFA from the University of Toronto. For the last 10 years, Viktor has split his studio time between Toronto and Siesta Key.
Viktor is best known for some controversial styles of artwork, starting with his notable unique controversial bullet painting series Art or War. When creating these unique works, guns are as much a part of Viktor’s process as paintbrushes as he embellishes the images with bullet holes. Featuring iconic figures from JFK to Justin Bieber to the couple from “American Gothic,” his bullet paintings highlight the absurdity and senselessness of gun violence.
Viktor’s artistic practice has evolved over time to include sculpture. These works are often comprised of upcycled materials covered with bronze, stainless steel, or electroplated 24-karat gold.
His paintings and sculptures are in private collections around the world. For more information about the artist, visit artorwar.viktormitic.com.
