Artist Talk: Barbara Demšar

Accompanying Programme of th Lit by the Sun Exhibition

30. 6. 2021 @ 18:00
Free entry

Kindly invited to an artist talk with Barbara Demšar accompanying her exhibition Lit by the Sun which is currently on view at the Ivan Grohar Gallery. The entire Lit by the Sun cycle is about the way Barbara Demšar experiences nature and natural phenomena. For her, nature is an eternal source of inspiration, allowing her to record the impressions she gains through her internalised experience of Škofja Loka’s landscape in a lyrical way. Under the artist’s brush, realistic motifs from her home environment are transformed into an image or vision of a world in which nature is the source of moods and stories: it is also dynamic, spiritual, and aesthetically pleasing; it is by no means mechanical, soulless, and explicable only through rational thinking.

The talk will take place in front of the Ivan grohar Gallery and will be led by the exhibition curator Boštjan Soklič.
