Via Negativa: BALKAN CONNECTION
Three performances interconnected by the Balkan blunt, radical and humorous nature. With reference to the contexts of Joseph Beuys, Marina Abramović and Bojana Kunst, a Croat (Boris Kadin) and a Serb (Kristian Al Droubi) portray their own attitudes towards intellectualization, mystification and impotence of contemporary art.
