Edited by Jadranka Kosorcic. Text by Rebecca Geldard, William Pym, Raimar Stange.
Croatian artist Jadranka Kosorcic's drawings fall somewhere between the generic look of a wanted poster and the loving craft of an amateur portrait. Likening the experience to a blind date, Kosorcic (born 1972) finds her subjects through newspaper advertisements and chance meetings. Not quite likenesses of specific individuals, her works are immediate reproductions of the tension between artist and unknown sitter.
