Whereas in the majority of artists drawing has a preparatory or accompanying status, in Tomislav \u010cerani\u0107\u2019s work it holds the status of a finished artistic result, autonomous sculptural organism, map that registers and brings to light the flow of labyrinthine path of the author\u2019s extremely subjective imagination. For decades now \u010cerani\u0107 has been proving to the anxious modern world, in attractive and artistically compelling ways, that drawing can justifiably compete with other modern methods of artistic expression. Establishing drawing as independent and completely finished work, an autonomous discipline and independent creation, this artist of delicate and refined spirit does not decide to refer to the perceived reality, but instead he opts for escapism as the principle of detachment from the material interpretation of reality, for the creation of fictional worlds, purely fictional construction of images and shapes. In \u010cerani\u0107\u2019s work the utopianism of fictional reality, created with unique and virtuoso-drawings, segmented in interesting and always and completely, and in all aspects articulated cycles, comes before the message that the other media \u2013 when referring to reality – send to the observer in a clumsy way. Unlike the \u2013 old and new \u2013 figuration we usually encounter in the work of the local environment, his figuration is completely deprived of eschatological messages, and the only thing he wants to achieve is to provide himself with the opportunity for free self-disclosure in the conjunction of erudition and poetry, in a unique version of visual \u201cschizotext\u201c. Therefore, there are no artists in Croatia who are similar to him in style or language. Such artist remains an independent individual who speaks in the first person. He is more interested in using the language of autonomous sculptural logic and citation \u2013 it is like he is stateless, he remains enclosed in his own small intimate fictional world, but familiar, open and attractive to the visual sensibility of the present observer, who is thus easily motivated to dive into the meditative and subliminal space behind and below the image.<\/em>(From the foreword Drawing as \u00abschizotext\u00bb of\u00a0 Ivica \u017dupan )<\/p>\n
