About an artist
"Sašo Vrabič belongs to the generation of young artists whose works relate to the 21st century and worldwide problems of contemporary society that are interconnected and subordinated to the world of mass communication." Alenka Gregorič

"Sašo Vrabič is basically occupied with the image-generating mechanisms of our contemporary society; he recycles images from the mass media and places them into other contexts and relations. Edit Molnár

"The work of Sašo Vrabič contains some characteristics unique to the place and time of its creation... The computer, which today we can no longer avoid, has greatly marked the way of life, work and thinking of Vrabič's generation."
Petja Grafenauer


"The painting-screens of Sašo Vrabič emerge from elusive vacuum of intangible physical space formed at the outlet of the cathode-ray tube of the TV monitor." Marko Košan

"Whilst most of Sašo Vrabič’s work makes heavy use of interactive installations and digital communication, the way in which the computer here has been technically put out of action is a way of calling into question both his usefulness and his role in contemporary communication." André Rouillé
