Nowadays it is quite hard to find that style of genre that describes, in unity or in its elements, those voices that are capable of reflecting the current state of contemporary art. Next to the accelerated lifestyle of the 21st century, it is difficult to validate this kind of categorizing perspective, which is often seen as old-fashioned and corny. However, for the sake of comprehensibility we are constantly making an attempt to have clear definitions, which is made even more complicated by the last two decades, which characterized by nostalgically delving back into neo avantgarde and abstract painting that has resulted in some kind of change of perspective, since the recurring artistic features, as well as the visuality of the 21st century determines in great deal the way of thinking about art, processing and understanding the phenomena of contemporary art.

For the artists featured at the exhibition „Sugar spice and everything nice”, this change of perspective is particularly fascinating, since they define their arts right in opposition to this, conflicting the precision of abstraction with strongly figurative style, communicating through the banal, sometimes indefinitely repeated elements and figures, known from our everyday life. Therefore, the figurative form language comes to the fore, as the complete opposite of striving to obsessively reach precision.
