Friday, 29 January from 8 pm
You are kindly invited to attend the last viewing of the Bojan Salaj’s exhibition, entitled Old/New (Constructions)
On the occasion of the closure of the exhibition Photon will be open longer (from 12 to 10 pm); from 8 pm the socialising with the artists and other collaborators will take place.
The exhibition showcases recent works of Bojan Salaj who is moving away from the traditional postulates of photographic representaion and instead explores the characteristics of visual language, ontology of photography as well as touches on the most pressing questions of contemporary society.
Despite the apparent minimalism and formalism of the images he also analyses broader socio-political context. The exhibition as a whole thus focuses on the profound deliberation about the gray eminence of modern society, invisible but omnipresent capital. Salaj therefore profoundly deliberates the ideas of modernism which has always, also with the reduction of a painting to a geometrical surface thoroughly changed the perception of art as well as the status of an art work and an artist, and questions the current media iconography which reflects today’s widespread and omnipresent instability.
