Ivan Gračner
OBJEKAT
23. mart – 4. april 2017.
transformArt gallery
Svetog Save 8, Belgrade

Zbog mogućnosti kačenja velikih težina sa plafona, TransformArt galerija Ivanu služi kao inspiracija, i izduvnu granu dimnjaka napuštene fabrike koja je dugo stajala neiskorišćena u njegovom studiju transformiše u viseću metalnu skulpturu koja savršeno upotpunjava prostor.

Nazvao ju je Objekat.

Svojim radovima ne voli da daje konkretna imena, smatra da se tako otkrije sve o njemu, ljudi više ne razmišljaju, prihvate naziv i to je sve. Zato ova skulptura, kao Objekat može dalje da živi i posle izložbe, da se regeneriše i transformiše u neke druge oblike.

Objekat, za nekoga sladoled ili giros, a za nekoga zvono i muzički instrument.

Due to the ability to attach artworks of large dimensions and weight from the ceiling of the TransformArt gallery, Ivan Gračner saught the space as inspiration in itself. Using an exhaust chimney pipe from an abandoned factory, that was waiting for the artist’s vision in his studio, Gračner transformed metallic junk into a sculpture applied perfectly in its entirity, conceptually and objectively, to the gallery.

He named it Object.

Gračner rarely gives his works concrete names, viewing naming works as an open door to himself and understanding that people no longer contemplate on names rather accept them as for what they are. Therefore this sculpture as Object can continue to live outside the exhibition and gallery, to regenerate and transform into other shapes.

To some, Object is an ice cream cone or gyros roast, to others Object is a gong or another type of musical instrument.
