Swimmer on the poster for exhibition Summer

Poletje/Summer, suggestins for the permanent collection
July 2nd - September 10th 2009, The Maribor Gallery of Fine Arts

 

When profesor Tomaž Brejc asked me whether I felt a bit like a "Mariborian," now that I work in Maribor, I replied that of course I do. That is how I, who live in Ljubljana, ended up in the "Summer" exhibition in Maribor. Althouh the title of the exhibition "Summer" wasn't known yet at the time, I proposed to participate with my "Swimmer", which the galery selected as the invitation poster for the exhibition.

 


 

Flying Family

Flying Family, drawing on wall, Mercator Center, Postojna, 2008

 

Flying Family Flying Family Flying Family

When I saw the 16 meters wall in the new Mercator Center in Postojna, I thought, "oh my god it's so big". I was a bit concerned whether I would be able to make such a huge drawing of the flying family. Every figure is about four meters long. But with a little help from my computer and projector I copied the outline on the wall and then my assistant Martina and I colored it in. It took us 10 days to finsih it.

I've known Zora for a long time. In 1988 we had a show at the Bežigrad Gallery of lithographs that we had made during our student years at the Academy of Fine Arts. Subsequently we each had numerous solo shows. This summer, after twenty years, we have a show together again at MGLC. The opening of this retrospective was on July 1st, 2008.
