Maribor, Slovenia, 1961. Tusek grew up in Switzerland and has lived in Brussels for more than ten years. As a painter he looks at the tension between concretised abstraction and abstracted representation. His work made an impression internationally at Jan Hoet's documenta 9 in Kassel in 1992, where his paintings were exhibited literally opposite works by Richard Artschwager and Gerhard Richter in the temporary pavilion by Robbrecht & Daem. Tusek also showed work at such exhibitions as 'Het sublieme gemis', KMSKA, Antwerp (1993), 'The Event Horizon', Irish Museum of Modern Art (1996) and 'l'Effet Larson - processus de résonance dans l'art contemporain' at OK-Linz and the Casino in Luxemburg (2002).
