Not wishing to be politically engaged, Djurovic left his country 2002 and moved to Rome, where he studied at Institutum Patristicum Augustinianum of the Pontifical Lateran University. In January 2007, he acquired a license in theology and patristic sciences. He received his Doctorate in Theology and Patristic Sciences in June 2010. He studied at Analisi esegetico-teologica, at IPA, under the moderation of the following professors: Vittorino Grossi, OSA (first supervisor), Robert Dodaro, OSA (second mentor and the current president), and Nello Cipriani, OSA (advocatus diaboli). He published his thesis the same year. President of the Institute, Dodaro, said that he would try to apply an innovative research method present in this thesis in future doctoral researches. He speaks several ancient languages (Greek, Hebrew, Syrian, Latin, Old Church Slavonic) and many modern ones (Slavic languages, Italian, English, Spanish, and French). He is devoted to translating and writing scientific researches and painting. Djurovic's early years were characterized by the exploration of different painting and graphic techniques. His range of techniques is vast, so hyper-realistic egg tempera and rudimentary expression in oil paintings and frescoes can be seen, but his techniques tend toward the technology of materials, composition, expression, and psychology of person and figure. Brutal execution was the main characteristic of most of his works until 2002. This expression persisted in the Roman period in certain pictures, especially in oils: landscapes, chtonic animals (cats, bulls, deer), and in one part of the portraits. The treatment in the iconography, on the contrary, has become more sophisticated, taking direction of Byzantine or Renaissance style but always sublimed in mode that the artist and his inherent manner can constantly be recognized. If the earlier period is characterized by adhering to templates, the Roman period shows the originality of the composition solutions as well as of the individual icons. Innovation is conditioned by theological reflections. Djurovic's art has been well accepted by many important persons of the Roman Catholic Church, so his paintings adorn the rooms of Pope John Paul II, the Cardinals: Fiorenzo Angelini, Tarcisio Bertone, Gianfranco Ravasi, Tomas Špidlik, bishops (in primis Stanislav Hočevar, Archbishop of Belgrade), the priest-artists (Ivan Marko Rupnik, Giampiero Maria Arabia), and the persons of the culture (e.g., Erri De Luca, Massimo Cacciari).
