Duration of the exhibition: 24th September 2022 – 23rd January 2023
Place of the exhibition: The Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade
The Museum of Contemporary Art is the host is hosting a major exhibition showcasing the multi-decade creative opus of one of the most prominent actors on the contemporary art scene in Serbia – Mrđan Bajić. Set on all five levels and in the immediate surroundings of the Museum, the exhibition is structured through chronological and thematic units (’80 vs ’90, Yugomuseum, Unreliable Stories) that follow all phases of Bajić’s sculptural work and the construction of a specific authorial poetics, approach, and expression in the medium of sculpture.
We are happy that Heartefact participated in the production of this exhibition, which encompasses the artist’s now emblematic works and projects that have marked artistic events in our country, the region, and internationally over the last four decades. The exhibition’s curatorial team consists of Miroslav Karić, Aleksandra Mirčić, and Žaklina Ratković.
During the last weekend of the exhibition, during which the jubilee 20,000th visitor was awarded, visitors were able to experience the works in a slightly different way when they were guided through them by Katarina Anđelić Cakana. With this meta-performance, we did not want to miss the opportunity for fiction and reality to meet again, almost thirty years after the airing of the TV series “Open Doors” in which actress Vesna Trivalić played a character created and whose artwork was realized by the author Bajić.
