Milos Sobaic`s work is a torrential outpouring of images in a wide variety of forms --- paintings, sculptures, installations, and works that combine both painting and sculpture. These have gained him recognition as the leading Serbian artist of his generation. Like many artists who come from the Balkans, he is a complete cosmopolitan. He has spent a long time living and working in Paris, his residence there the famous Bateau-Lavoir, once inhabited by Picasso, amongst other artists. He also teaches in China, at the Luxun Academy of Arts in Shenyang, and so is in close touch with the aesthetic revolution now taking place in Chinese art. Yet he has always been careful to maintain his roots in Serbia and Montenegro — his work has the epic sweep, as well as the passion and darkness, associated with traditional Balkan folktales.
By its very nature, Sobaic`s work is difficult to classify. It has links to Francis Bacon, to the classical surrealism of Salvador Dali, and to the romanticism of Gericault. It is constantly preoccupied, as indeed these artists were, with the bond between the sublime and the abject, and with the tragic nature of the human condition. Above all, however, it represents the world in flux, and it is no accident that one of the images he continues to revisit is that of a swimmer cleaving through water.
In this monograph, the first written on the artist in
English, renowned critic and poet Edward LucieSmith analyses his work across the diverse media in which it appears, and the major themes with which it is concerned.
