Born in Nis, Serbia, Boban studied under Nandor Glid at the University of Arts in Belgrade, graduating in 1988. Between 1986 and 1990, he exhibited his sculptures in galleries across Europe. In 1991, at the outbreak of the Yugoslav Wars, Boban immigrated to the United States and settled in Chicago.[1] Since then, his works have been exhibited in the United States, Jamaica, Japan, and the Philippines. Boban's sculpture "Renaissance Man" was installed in Chicago's Lincoln Park in 2003. Also in 2003, Boban's sculptures of a lioness and her cub were installed in Chicago's Cummings Playground, again in Lincoln Park.[2] Boban has been featured in several PBS WTTW television programs.
