SA-PO is the artist team of Sven Sauer and Igor Posavec. In their works they develop illusions that put the viewer’s perception to the test. Again and again, the two artists are thematically pulled to mega-cities such as Tokyo, Shanghai or New York. Their works show symptoms of a society and the tempo of a technology development that has exceeded the measure which a civilization is capable to absorb. The result is an exhilarating rationalist romanticism for a civilization which is obsessed of being addicted to reality… Rich in images, the artists tell of the lonely search for identity and intimacy amid the global brand epidemic.
