Artist statement / about artist Artist resume News from the artist

"The work of Sašo Vrabič contains some characteristics unique to the place and time of its creation... The computer, which today we can no longer avoid, has greatly marked the way of life, work and thinking of Vrabič's generation." Petja Grafenauer

"Sašo Vrabič belongs to the generation of young artists whose works relate to the 21st century and worldwide problems of contemporary society that are interconnected and subordinated to the world of mass communication." Alenka Gregorič

"Sašo Vrabič is basically occupied with the image-generating mechanisms of our contemporary society; he recycles images from the mass media and places them into other contexts and relations. Edit Molnár

"The creativity of Sašo Vrabič is closely bound to the environment from which he comes, in both socio-cultural and formal-artistic senses. He belongs to the young generation of artists who set the image in the centre of their creativity, as a result of the flood of visual images which has steadily increased with the developement of mass media, from pop-art to explosion at the begining of the nineties." Maja Šuštaršič
