Negotiating/Commenting on the contemporary condition of artists and art through various subversive gestures. For example different artworks and personalities of the art world should be (digitally) mixed and compiled to a spatial collage like a scale model of „World of art“. Output could be object or DVD projection.
During my stay in Vienna I’m planning to develop, prepare and organize Bratislava & Vienna artists’ exhibition. Exhibition should be in autumn of 2008 in Bratislava in independent artist space OST-960 (300 square meters). I would like to develop and use unusual or subversive forms of curatorial work and organization.
