Miloš Vujić, artist from Banjaluka who holds a doctorate from the Faculty of Contemporary Arts, will have another solo exhibition, this time at the “Old Captaincy” Art Gallery in Zemun (Kej oslobođenja 8). The exhibition opens on Wednesday, August 14, at 8 PM.
Entitled “Myth in Picture”, the exhibition showcases selected works from the art project “An Artist as a Mythologist”, as well as an entire cycle of about sixty oils on canvas.
“Myth in Picture” as an overview of authors’ four-year output
The exhibition presents a clearly defined overview of four years of work, recognizing three phases in the development of the artist’s signature style, created in the process of exploring the Slavic myth. The artist’s role is twofold: that of a creator and that of a researcher.
From the Slavic pagan world, the artist-mythologist collects myths and their interpretations, analyzes them and defines them anew through the painting process. The final expression of the artist’s work is a work of fine art that offers a unique view of the picture of the mythological world. The collected material, myth, tradition and the author’s need to get to know and understand that world and then present, in a contemporary way, the abstraction of the myth in picture, become the motif of his art output.
The selected works constitute the key points in the development of a unique art style, the artist’s world and the transformation that follows the inner changes of the work as a whole.
