Velibor Božović

I was born in Slovenjgradec, Slovenia but grew up in Sarajevo, Bosnia. When I was in my twenties, the country of my youth became a war zone and I spent the duration of the siege of Sarajevo honing my survival skills.

My work has been exhibited in the United States, Cuba, Canada, and Bosnia-Herzegovina. My photographs appeared in The New York Times, International Herald Tribune, Chicago Tribune, Granta, The Paris Review, Descant, BH Dani and others.
