The series of photographs Meadow and Composition were created for an exhibition at the Student Cultural Center Gallery in Belgrade in 1974. Rački found the motifs for the photographs on the Ljubljana Marsh. At that time, his basic premise was that an artist used artistic means to extract from a motif the subject matter that was latent in it, especially in photography. He thus needed a motif that was as neutral as possible, and he found it in the shot of a meadow with a forest in the background.

The Composition series of photographs is important because it represents the starting point of the Grid series, and two photographs from this are included in the Continuities and Ruptures permanent exhibition. The artist divided a photograph of the marsh with various details into 12 equal squares. He then displayed the squares separately as individual photographs, each with its own subject. Although they are clearly mechanical crops, the images turn out to be interesting both in terms of subject matter and composition. Rački had already been interested in the role of chance in art before this work, including in his film experiments, which often made reference to modernist artists employing chance in their work. He described this activity as coaxing different subjects from a single negative, with the individual segments – except one – being randomly cropped and randomly composed. Perhaps not unimportantly, Rački was also involved in comics at that time, and Grids can therefore be seen as a kind of photo comic.
