Born and raised in Belgrade, Serbia, Boogie began
photographing rebellion and unrest during the civil war
that ravaged his country during the 1990s. Growing up in
a war-torn country defined Boogie’s style and attraction to
the darker side of human existence. His archives reveal
undeniable evidence of the evils that erode the urban space
and unite humanity in the despair of impoverished lives.
Belgrade Belongs to Me, his third powerHouse Book, shows
the city from the inside as the former Yugoslavia began its
rapid disintegration into war and the slow resurrection of a
people who have fought for centuries for their survival.

Boogie does not spare the spectator any social taboos, as
he documents the daily struggles of the marginalized people
whose lives he infiltrates completely, taking us deep into
worlds traditionally closed to outsiders. Whether documenting
neo-Nazis or gypsies, police or protesters, or the working class
people of Belgrade, Boogie’s work reflects his respect for his
subjects, defying the glamorized stereotypes of urban life and
revealing the phantoms that haunt the modern metropolis.

—Boogie
