The Armory Show 2022

8 - 11 September 2022 

The Armory Show presents the world's leading international galleries showcasing works from both modern masters and cutting-edge contemporary artists, and helps the art market thrive through making buying, selling, and discovering art more accessible.

 

Rutger Brandt Gallery is participating online with a solo exhibition by Radenko Milak (Travnik, 1980). Milak is a young artist with a distinguished international career. He represented Bosnia and Herzegovina at the Venice Biennial in 2017.

 

Milak creates outstanding watercolor paintings which are largely based on existing photographs or documentary images. By consciously translating these images from one medium to another, he reinforces the message of the original image. This process allows him to transfer these messages from the past to the present, stimulating the viewer to re-evaluate forgotten and invisible realities.

Not afraid to engage with topics like major world catastrophes, wars, global environmental crises, groundbreaking social and cultural events and political issues in his art, Milak always manages to captivate the viewer's attention.
