Repetition and Reiteration, Josip Rončević’s most recent painting cycle, takes as its point of departure a deceptively simple question: what happens when a painting becomes its own source material? This question engages with the fundamental concerns of painting: the relationship between image and template, original and copy, abstraction and representation, process and finished work. When a painting no longer departs from an external motif but from itself, the traditional logic of representation turns inward. The painting becomes its own origin, its own subject of observation, and its own problem.
