Parallel to this the horizon of the artist’s identity has gradually widened, encompassing the roles of a historian, researcher, analyst, compiler, theoretician, and critic. The exhibition is surveying the changes in this process, so it focuses on presenting works which speak of the present moment through so-called small gestures. These gestures should be understood as a metaphor of simple and minimal models of expression that avoid transient spectacularity.
Through the emerging and established positions of the 7 authors from Croatia, the exhibition enables the development of overcoming the imposed boundaries, whether physical, geographic or mental, which are not division lines anymore, but on the contrary: spaces of articulation of new possibilities of positioning artistic identities.
The exhibition is produced in collaboration with the Museum of Contemporary Art (MSU), Zagreb.
