The internationally acclaimed [[Irwin]] group forms part of the [[NSK State|Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK)]] movement. In the work of the group (consisting of 5 painters), two fundamental attitudes may be observed: the first is the emphasis on collective working rather than privileging the individual personality of the artist; and the second is the NSK working procedure, sometimes called the ‘retro-principle’, whereby works become a collage of quotations and allusions to various sources.

The internationally acclaimed Irwin group was established in Ljubljana in 1983 by 5 artists: Dušan Mandič, Miran Mohar, Andrej Savski, Roman Uranjek and Borut Vogelnik. Along with the Laibach music group, the performance group Scipion Nasice Sisters Theatre (which later evolved into Noordung Cosmokinetic Cabinet) and the design section Novi kolektivizem (NK), the Irwin group is part of the Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK) movement. In the work of the group two fundamental attitudes may be observed: the first is the emphasis on collective working rather than privileging the individual personality of the artist; and the second is the NSK working procedure, so-called the ‘retro-principle’, whereby works become a collage of quotations and allusions to various sources.
