Pavlič Andrej – In Search of Identity

Andrej Pavlič was born on May 18, 1957, in Ljubljana (Slovenia). After finishing high school, he studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana, where he graduated in 1981. He was a member of the Association of Visual Artists of Slovenia (DSLU) from 1982 to 1984 and became an independent professional artist. In 1994, he furthered his education at Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris. He has participated in numerous artistic gatherings and colonies, group exhibitions (over 130), and held about 65 solo exhibitions (Paris, Willach, Klagenfurt, Zagreb, Belgrade) worldwide. He has received several awards in Slovenia and abroad. He lives and works in Ljubljana. The interweaving of past, present, and future is one of the most important characteristics of Pavlič’s art, which often exists as a fusion of painting and sculpture.
