Abstract

The collaborative artists’ group IRWIN has been a dynamic force in contemporary Eastern European art for some twenty years. Comprised of five artists from Slovenia, IRWIN: Like to Like focuses on three recent installations which cleverly unpick the idea of an artistic ‘avant garde’ in the context of Central and Eastern Europe. This mixed-media exhibition includes six large-scale colour photographs depicting actions and projects in landscape; the result of contemporary reconstructions of performance art by 1970s art movement OHO. IRWIN’s work highlights the paradox of art-making practice in Eastern Europe which is re-establishing itself after Communism. [RMIT media].

Artists: Dusan Mandic, Borut Vogelnik, Andrej Savski, Roman Uranjek, Miran Mohar.
