Case report

Seeing Slavonia

Igor Loinjak ; Muzej likovnih umjetnosti, Osijek

Abstract

Visual stimuli coming from Alebić’s canvases point to existential topics and ask questions that do not open directly to the observer and, I dare say, to the artist himself. Seeing motifs, entering the portrayed ambience and moving from one canvas to another, the observer discovers Slavonia and gets to know the artist too. Since the 1970s, the subjective approach of artists has become emphasized often resulting in direct artistic statements. Ich-form. In Alebić’s works this directness is not present which does not mean that we can talk about an objective approach. In my opinion, quite the contrary; the non-direct approach has just removed from the surface the deep subjective approach to the artist’s perception of the world that surrounds him, the world with which he is united and on which he imprints his own existence.
