Portraits, 2008-1997
"... From the years of her practise as a photographer, Ana Opalić has selected a series of pictures that something -not violently but nevertheless convincingly-
pulls into a cogent whole. What is this something?
Is it perhaps the generic unity (the portrait or the double portrait)? Is it the relationship of the figures to the space (external and internal)? Is it the gaze that all the models direct towards the eye of the camera, clearly aware of its presence, towards the camerawoman's lens? The very circumstance that all of the people portrayed are looking into the camera says that they have not been caught out,
not taken by surprise, that this is a matter, rather, of a compact..."
