About exhibition

Exhibited artworks

Transparency, fragility. Iztok Maroh, who works as an artist, curator, and lecturer mainly in the field of artistic sculptural ceramics, in his continuous redefinitions of »artistic events«, explores the relationship between the visual, phenomenal world and human and how they deconstruct, establish, define and transform each other. What are the factors that condition these processes? What defines a person through observing an artwork and vice versa?
