Best described as an architect of the mind, his work has been awarded, exhibited and represented in public and private collections throughout the world.&nbsp; Vjeko is an artist who rejects comforting visions.&nbsp;He refuses simple answers proffered by figures of authority or dictated by common sense, believing that they numb us to the complexity of reality and blinds us to possibility. Instead, his art and his philosophy constantly push against the boundaries of knowability. The breaks in linearity in his art work signify the end of reason, and challenge us to discover what lies in the space beyond.

A desire to return to normal? A desperate longing to move forward, or an attempt to maintain a status quo and pretend nothing has happened? 
 In times when humanity lost its ways, reset can take a multitude of meanings. It could be an excuse to step outside the time, to sense a heartbeat and contemplate fragility of life. To cling on to past, decide to stay in the present, or to move towards the future. To reset means to listen the silence, breathe deeply and stare into the abyss. To liberate ourselves from fears and take a leap into unknown. To devote ourselves to a higher cause and let creativity save us from the damnation. Reset may be our penalty or blessing, depending on which side of reality we decide to exist. Drawing as Reset To draw is a leap into unknown, a release from fears and expectations. A journey without return. A permit to make mistakes without feeling remorse. To surrender and confess with every stroke. To scratch the surface, rip the paper, spill the ink and change direction. To play games with the Universe. To dance like a child, or a drop of water on the brush. To draw, is to be reborn through lines and marks.

He likes to think and study and he never liked the idea of becoming an artist, because he does not like art. However, despite his resolution, he studied art and became university professor in painting techniques. When we moved to Canada, my father was unhappy with his position, for not being recognized for his knowledge and skill. He does not like what he is and he decided to become somebody else. He divided himself into a four different people. This exhibition is a story about four artists whose plan was to destroy art.My father has put this exhibition together in order to ask a question concerning the present and future state of the arts. I told my father I believe in 2012 the art will finally disappear. My friends at school are not very interested in art history and they do not like to learn traditional skills. They like to make art with computers. Sometimes they like to use photography or just to rearrange objects. This is the reason why real art will vanish.

His passion was the mystery and unknown. His ambition was to find a way to represent the invisible. He believed in science, but also in mysticism. At one point, he recognized the other side of reality, called unfairness. &nbsp;He became a communist and fighter for human rights. Soon after, he was killed because an important person did not like his progressive ideas. <img width="753" height="945" width_o="753" height_o="945" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0d979bf373c52210e5812318003bb353c2a6d06070c1cb57d0951bd11b56dfd3/Sagerinni-BW.jpg" data-mid="36995161" border="0" data-scale="34" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/753/i/0d979bf373c52210e5812318003bb353c2a6d06070c1cb57d0951bd11b56dfd3/Sagerinni-BW.jpg" />&nbsp; &nbsp;<img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/01963bd6189bec11fcaa27df1acc6300b413814881cb8efaf7e4790730c2c06d/2sagerinni-jpg.jpg" data-mid="36995196" border="0" data-scale="57" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/01963bd6189bec11fcaa27df1acc6300b413814881cb8efaf7e4790730c2c06d/2sagerinni-jpg.jpg" /> Visio Sagerinniwas a brave and adventurous spirit. He did not like the school, but he liked to make things. He was always looking for fun and adventure. Visio was not very serious about anything. He enjoyed spending time singing and drinking with friends. His passion was to make strange objects that could be used for many purposes. He was very interested to blend art with crafts, because he said, artalone was worthless. He lost his life because of his fearless nature, while trying to save the Bauhaus school from closing down. <img width="713" height="945" width_o="713" height_o="945" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/21ed7e0ae2ea3fb8f261a6035e2c2e4126645838a9c001323d01300e387380a8/Saggner-BW.jpg" data-mid="36995248" border="0" data-scale="35" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/713/i/21ed7e0ae2ea3fb8f261a6035e2c2e4126645838a9c001323d01300e387380a8/Saggner-BW.jpg" /> &nbsp;<img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/03a11f9564a50626b7df14072e9a0fe4cf49c97ef3a42a7631549bc2af8bf5db/3saggner-jpg.jpg" data-mid="36995279" border="0" data-scale="61" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/03a11f9564a50626b7df14072e9a0fe4cf49c97ef3a42a7631549bc2af8bf5db/3saggner-jpg.jpg" /> Vicar Saggnerwas an intelligent person, but he never used his mind. Everything he did was in opposition to himself. He was not an optimist, but behaved like a pessimist. He desperately wanted to escape from everything and everybody. He ended up with destroying every possession and relationship. At the end, he had only his own body. His body became his artwork. He joined the Greenpeace and died under the mysterious circumstances while imprisoned at Victoria, B.C. <img width="1167" height="1667" width_o="1167" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5f4114f5bdaca14e98ff50bc896da5eb66dc9136a17cd7feea0a5bf1279ae027/Seger-BW.jpg" data-mid="36995335" border="0" data-scale="30" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5f4114f5bdaca14e98ff50bc896da5eb66dc9136a17cd7feea0a5bf1279ae027/Seger-BW.jpg" />&nbsp;&nbsp;<img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3564e55e2c6bcdcf31eec704a8aaa62c4c5cfba417bf576d1ac20c5cf0004477/4seger-jpg.jpg" data-mid="36995595" border="0" data-scale="57" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3564e55e2c6bcdcf31eec704a8aaa62c4c5cfba417bf576d1ac20c5cf0004477/4seger-jpg.jpg" /> Vick Seger is twenty-five years old Canadian photojournalist. He is not particularly bright nor educated. He is somehow indifferent and indolent type of person. Typical Canadian. His only passion is photography. He likes taking pictures of everything.

Shocked by what he saw there, he moved to the St Helena Island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, far away from everything.&nbsp; <img width="1600" height="1200" width_o="1600" height_o="1200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/159b46bd9a5053b48cc8d3bf4c89749efe5b9c70bb2d2e1bb39ba99dc66ed45c/DSCN3252.JPG" data-mid="37114141" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/159b46bd9a5053b48cc8d3bf4c89749efe5b9c70bb2d2e1bb39ba99dc66ed45c/DSCN3252.JPG" /> impermanent art installation at Seymour Art Gallery &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <img width="2000" height="1553" width_o="2000" height_o="1553" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e5f3c6c7f72be3c9c838585acae7f7d467f790a3230656e51a5437e8db710f23/catalogue-inside-NEW.gif" data-mid="36996122" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e5f3c6c7f72be3c9c838585acae7f7d467f790a3230656e51a5437e8db710f23/catalogue-inside-NEW.gif" /> <img width="1575" height="1175" width_o="1575" height_o="1175" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/164700e46dd0b5e1b5eb480c031be31edc97423c57c8b41e5e6d2838f1954a0b/DSCN3256.jpg" data-mid="37179465" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/164700e46dd0b5e1b5eb480c031be31edc97423c57c8b41e5e6d2838f1954a0b/DSCN3256.jpg" /> <img width="1200" height="1600" width_o="1200" height_o="1600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e47f5174fd92481a1df25342ce9e8bb3aad9929744538592a70a4e07408350e8/Vjeko-Sager-1912-2012-end.jpg" data-mid="39119101" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e47f5174fd92481a1df25342ce9e8bb3aad9929744538592a70a4e07408350e8/Vjeko-Sager-1912-2012-end.jpg" /> + Art is Dead + Arte e Morta + Kunst ist Tot +&nbsp;L’art est Mort + El Arte esta Muerto + Arto Mortis + &nbsp;艺术已经死了+ Umjetnost je mrtva + https://vjekosager.com/Moving-Island-Project Wed, 06 Mar 2019 05:00:09 +0000 Vjeko Sager https://vjekosager.com/Moving-Island-Project Drawings Performance Installation Paintings Moving Island ...every 10 years... <img width="2140" height="1224" width_o="2140" height_o="1224" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/67f49a6604c30f471f2579b9121fcc4f48aff68ccb4263eccdb7bbd8c1d5815f/Screen-Shot-2019-03-06-at-10.31.51-AM.png" data-mid="37003316" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/67f49a6604c30f471f2579b9121fcc4f48aff68ccb4263eccdb7bbd8c1d5815f/Screen-Shot-2019-03-06-at-10.31.51-AM.png" /> Attempts to bring the island Madonna of the Rock from Montenegro to Canada. <img width="1280" height="860" width_o="1280" height_o="860" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1e89e27acc7f67dea9b7eadd83ae0d709240d48f81f7ee5169af5a75b9609ea0/Moving-Island-Montenegro.jpg" data-mid="38972371" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1e89e27acc7f67dea9b7eadd83ae0d709240d48f81f7ee5169af5a75b9609ea0/Moving-Island-Montenegro.jpg" /> August 15, 1993, Montenegro <img width="1472" height="2044" width_o="1472" height_o="2044" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b2893f2427d4e86cbbe3d1b9401b4da5ec3f713c1667fdeae5e98de902ee8917/ribe.jpg" data-mid="37001366" border="0" data-scale="47" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b2893f2427d4e86cbbe3d1b9401b4da5ec3f713c1667fdeae5e98de902ee8917/ribe.jpg" />&nbsp; &nbsp;<img width="1448" height="2048" width_o="1448" height_o="2048" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a0d53eef1f1d94bad72d7608d7fc228957a67dc3ac3ec3d480b671386c11e3c1/riba.jpg" data-mid="37005834" border="0" data-scale="46" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a0d53eef1f1d94bad72d7608d7fc228957a67dc3ac3ec3d480b671386c11e3c1/riba.jpg" />&nbsp; <img width="741" height="624" width_o="741" height_o="624" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d1b8ac4dd5db0903ce2661c2f40191d4a90d7f347ded3a6679b3381a06313104/STILL-WORK.jpg" data-mid="37096083" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/741/i/d1b8ac4dd5db0903ce2661c2f40191d4a90d7f347ded3a6679b3381a06313104/STILL-WORK.jpg" /> August 15, 2003, Montenegro I want to bring the island with me to Canada.
