Goran Đorđević (Goran Djordjevic; 1950, Yugoslavia) is a former artist. Graduated in electrical engineering in Belgrade and visual studies from MIT. As of 1979 he has realized a series of works based on copying, such as Short History of Art (1979/81) and Harbingers of Apocalypse (1981). Helped organizing "The Last Futurist Show" by Kasimir Malevich (1985), Walter Benjamin's lecture: "Mondrian 1963-1996" (1986), and The International Exhibition of Modern Art (Armory Show) (1986).

Since 1993, he has worked as a doorman of the Salon de Fleurus, New York, a live reenactment of Gertrude Stein's Paris salon from the early 20th century, housing copies of her collection of modern art. Đorđević also collaborated on the project International Exhibition of Modern Art Presents Alfred Barr's Museum of Modern Art in New York which was part of the official selection of Serbia and Montenegro on the Venice Bienale in 2003. In recent years he became an associate of the Museum of American Art in Berlin, working as its technical assistant. He now lives in New York.
