Mirko Bratuša: Hypocrites
17. 09. 2010 – 12. 12. 2010
Mirko Bratuša has prepared an exhibition for the gallery in Kostanjevica na Krki, housed in the former monastery church, and called the sculptures Hypocrites. In the case of the artist who is sensitive to the subtlest nuances of the spaces for which he prepares his exhibitions, the choice of theme was certainly dictated by the energy written into the church by time and the purpose for which it was built. But as it is generally characteristic for his work, he has not submitted to the usual, majority conception of this once-sacred space and instead has intuitively sensed its numerous other functions and, with his inexhaustible imagination, impressed them on the Hypocrites.
