Dimo Todorovski (Macedonian: Димо Тодоровски; 1910 in Thessaloniki – 1983 in Skopje), was a prominent Macedonian artist and sculptor.[1]
Two years after his birth, his family returned to his hometown of Prilep, then in Ottoman Empire. In 1917, his father died, and from 1920 to 1929 he resided in a Yugoslav Home for War Orphans in Bitola. In 1929–1935, he attended the art school in Belgrade. From 1945 to 1979, he contributed to the formation of an art school in Skopje and became one of the first professors, a position from which Todorovski retired in 1979. He was also a founding member of the art gallery in Skopje in 1949. In 1969 he was elected a corresponding member of the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts.[1]
