Ivo Prančič: A Retrospective

Sunday, 24 August 2025, at 4pm

The guided tour will be conducted by the curator Miha Colner (in Slovenian language).

The retrospective exhibition at the grand gallery of GBJ showcases the extensive body of work of Ivo Prančič, the artist who since the mid-1980s has been developing a distinctive version of non-mimetic and expressive painting. In his works he often uses a dark colour palette and a collage approach in order to address some of the universal and fundamental existential questions of the humankind, while at the same time ontologically analysing the medium of painting and its significance in the period of the ultimate and irreversible dominance of the mechanical image. The exhibition presents a comprehensive overview of his artistic oeuvre spanning across almost forty years, between 1987 and 2024, which means it focuses on the core of his ongoing mature creative period.
