This catalog/portfolio was created for Srdarev as a promotion for his exhibition Theater of Drawings at Galerija Križi ´c Roban in 2007. The principles characterizing Srdarev’s work, the designers explain in appropriately elliptical language, are translated into the book itself: “When examining the rhythm of his drawings, it may seem to us that they are rather forced and nervous pieces of art, determined by a constant need to comment both on the ephemeral, everyday structure of life and on certain permanent, valid situations that he seeks to share with others. Is it some sort of opening up?” The dominant element in the book, however, is the drawing. The art is beautifully reproduced. The cover and jacket, with their demonstrative lines, were made by the artist—by hand—in a practice that manages to look not unlike a signature. by Romy Ashby
