On Sunday at Bežigrad

"Sašo Vrabič interweaves classical media with modern, and conversely, in this exhibition. The painterly depiction of the mobile telephone, the football match, a girl who offers her service through the internet, and interactive film in the form of a CD, are the main actors of his installations. He uses them to question many of the problems of modern society, and his thoughts are of an existential nature. Just like the medium that he uses for a description of ideas, whether it is painterly or computerised, Bežigrad, as a specific part of the city (architecturally, the urban planning and sociologically), serves him only as a support through which he expresses his critical reflections on problems of the global culture. In the monumental size of the depicted motifs of his pictures he has chosen by coincidence "certain male pre-occupations."
