Some artists have accepted the challenge of these media and the course towards an electronic century. For Miso Veljkovic the computer as a medium doesn=t only have a technical reference but demonstration of content from the third world as an artistic attitude towards reality, that is this is a world of subconscience or virtual reality. Landscapes in his prints reflect the inspiring imagination of the author. The landscape consists of entities with separateness of partialisation prevailing. These are landscapes originating more from the dreams where Earth, Water and Air interweave in several sequences, often wavered by externally (artificially) initiated technical and mechanical irritation. All his landscapes ask the question of the illusion of truth. Does the recorded truth with the illusion of the third dimension really mean certain existence or is just a spiritual imagination? It is just through electronic media that Miso Veljkovic perhaps finds sense of the virtual meaning, beauty, reason and it is just the reason that there are no boundaries in his landscapes where nonmaterial spiritual answers have primal meaning. In his prints, he makes art from the arts, his own drama of experience of the virtual dimension expressed by the language of the electronic medium B computer, which shows most of the directions of the artistic movement in the next century. By expressing the tridimensionality in particular, the author emphasises and complements the virtual dimension of the works...........by Liljana Hristova
