Zmago Lenárdič: Second Life

Zmago Lenárdič (born in1959 in Ljubljana), academic painter, Professor at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, Ljubljana, presented his work at the site-specific exhibition in the Former Monastery Church, entitled Second Life.

In its very title, the Second Life exhibition takes us on the road of the Internet and its virtual possibilities. Specific expression of the artist’s visual poetic is rooted in the tradition of Modernist Art. In the exhibition installation we follow his investigation of the painting as an object and perception of a visual field – the subjects that essentially occupy him throughout his career. The artist introduced the vibrancy of stained glass windows into the abandoned colourlessness of the church.
