Exhibition The Curious Case of Ifs and Whens marks the tenth anniversary of the Dimitrije Bašičević Mangelos Award, one of the most relevant awards for a young visual artist in Serbia. Participants of the exhibition are former award laureates, and the opening will be followed by the announcement of this year’s open call to artists for participation.
Exhibition title The Curious Case of Ifs and Whens relates to the case in which the logic of network of the conditions, circumstances, causes and consequences of interdependence and negotiation, in space of reality in which we operate, is unpredictable, and impossible to negotiate, and thus becomes a space of uncertainty and insecurity. Works in the exhibition The Curious Case of If's and When's recognize and explore some of its elements, examine the potential and scope of artistic and social action and the possibility of relocation of the point of view and its consequences.
