Djordje Ozbolt: Questions of Faith Published by Hauser & Wirth Publishers. Text by Oliver Basciano. The work of Belgrade-born, London-based artist Djordje Ozbolt (born 1967) combines technical expertise with a light touch, offering a great example of what an uninhibited approach to the venerable genres of painting and sculpture can look like today. Infused with wit and humor (of all varieties: satire, slapstick, black), Ozbolt takes on themes of history, politics and travel, among others, in his work, which has increasingly come to include sculpture. Djordje Ozbolt: Questions of Faith highlights the artist’s work from the past three years, exploring Ozbolt’s range as an artist, his practice, inspirations and evolution. Featuring a text from Oliver Basciano, International Editor at ArtReview, this volume comes on the heels of several major shows for Ozbolt, including at the Holburne Museum in Bath and Hauser & Wirth, Somerset.
