Arsenije Jovanović

Jovanović has produced radio art works for Radio France, RAI, Ylesiradio, Kunstradio, SFB, WDR, ABC-Sydney, Czech Radio, Radio Belgrade, and Radio Sarajevo. For the last 15 years, he has worked mostly out of his home studios in Rovinj (Croatia) and Belgrade. He is founder of the Adriatic Sound Factory, a sound laboratory located in Rovinj, where he spends most of his time working at the seaside. Jovanović has won multiple prizes at many international radio festivals, including the Prix Italia (twice), Premio ondas (Spain, twice), Acustica international (WDR), Grand Prix (Rust, Austria), and Bienalderadio (Mexico City, three times), and has earned many national prizes in the former Yugoslavia.

American film director Terrence Malick used his “Prophecy of the Village Kremna” in the opening sequence of The Thin Red Line. Some of Jovanović’s compositions are also used in Malick’s soon-to-be-released The Tree of Life. Jovanović is married to artist Ilinka Colic, who has been his expert associate in the field of music and sound for many years. They have a daughter Ana.
