GLOWING COLOR
The first encounter of an observer/spectator with an art work is usuallu crucial. That is the time when spectators create their judgment on the presented work wich can be expressed as eiter good or bad.After that the art work can be further analyzed they can try to give it certain time and place, and than to put it in related art groups according to certain subject , technique , style , and composition.Time needed for this analysis depends , of course , on a degree of knowledge of individual spectator related to the art work presented to him.After the art work has given or has not given some answers to as many questions as the spectator knew how to ask , he can begin with analysis of the next exhibit.
During the first encounter with paintings of Dzevdet Nikocevic the spectator looks at paintings created using oil on convas technique which is one of artitic expression forms that has almost extinguished in the era of Contemporary art that has no appreciation for color scheme, perspective, and composition. There is nothing that can lead us to the time nor the place , and as it is a case with other monochrome painters, a question simply has to be asked - has the Art in general , reached its very beginnings?
So , the only conclusion that one might find after seeing Nikocevic,s paintings for the first time is that paintings are in fact yelow. And for this reason only these paintings should be seen once more.
Since everything that should compose an art work can be found on these paintings or around them.Using exclusively one color the author is firm in his efforts to fulfill all the things a painting asks for. Therefor, he completely, or to say it differently, almost completely neglects a general form while putting in an abstract arrangement everything that can figuratively imply to something material or concrete, and at the same time using just one element - color which is , as the basic painter,s component , still the most concrete of all other components.
While concetrating mainly on macrostructure of the painting, the painter has an almost filigrees patience in composing while in the same time discomposing a structure of the general form that is to be reconstructed in its entirety only in front of spectator,s eyes.
