The abstraction that Kovač chooses in order to “escape” from the concept engages elements of abstract language as we historically know it, but does not pretend to achieve a new or coherent stylistic pattern that would represent the cultural framework in which it originated, as such a framework is not possible in an atemporally organized contemporaneity. In a contemporaneity that eludes the logic of the historical organization of time (post-history) and which is characterized by the relativization of any determined meaning (post-truth), the painting of conceptlessness seems a logical paradox. There is no concept because there is no idea that needs to be abstracted. In other words, let’s localize the humorous question from the beginning of the text: „What was the painter trying to say?“ – „Nothing, the painter wanted to paint.“ B2 Gallery Contact: galerija@b2.rs

The communication relations between the exhibited works were performed through several simultaneous artistic strategies, connecting different artists into one whole.
