Press Release (pdf)
The body is an ongoing pretext for the artists to question themselves: how do we still look at it in a society where it is constantly represented with no taboo and merely no intimacy? How do we understand our bodies v/s beauty, ageing, one another, differences, the machine it might become in a near future?
In a world of technological changes where does it stand now and what is its identity?
Will it be swallowed in the exuberant and eerie world suggested by Nebojsa Bezanic or cannibalised in a merry saraband?
Bodies plunged in quiet waters, sensual, dreaming, nostalgically changing, faces watching us in truth or hidden behind ugly masks.
The exhibition does not give all the answers but helps you thinking through the images.
