Ana Nives Radović was born in 1984. in Kotor, Montenegro. She sold her first paintings in 2003.

She paints mathematical structures and her work is built on Euler’s Inequality, Poncelet’s Porism, Galois Automorphism, Pascal’s Theorem, Nine-Point Circle and the Sierpiński triangle. She works in oil and acrylic. The works are large format and geometric, built with strong contrasts. From 2003 to 2016 the palette was saturated, such as a full exhibition in magenta with black and white, another dominated entirely by blue. From 2017, when she turned her focus to The Power of a Triangle, the geometry tightened.

In her research “A Blockchain-Based Provenance and Conservation Ledger for Fine Art Collections: A Multidisciplinary Framework“, she proposes using distributed ledger infrastructure to create permanent, tamper-proof documentation for fine art provenance and conservation history.

Her academic background includes both economics and EU law. She holds a master’s degree in financial operations focused on Bitcoin and has completed PhD research in applied blockchain.

Ana is the author of Fintechlopedia, the first large-scale blockchain and fintech educational resource backed by Visa, which listed her as one of the Top 100 most influential fintech researchers in 2021. She founded the Fintech Online Center and the educational program 2M2T, which has been running since 2013.

Since 2007, she has been publishing the financial column Perperzona, which today appears in the Montenegrin media outlet Antena M, where she is also the editor of the economy & fintech section.

Since 2012 she is researching the financial and legal aspects of crypto assets.

In 2022, her PhD research, used as the basis for the development of a blockchain software project in cooperation with the Mathematical Institute, took first place in an EU knowledge transfer competition.

She splits her work between Switzerland and Montenegro.
