\n
\nTIME FOR A NEW STATE <\/strong>is the first UK retrospective of IRWIN<\/strong>, the visual arts component of NSK, <\/strong>founded in Ljubljana (Slovenia) in 1983. This ambitious display features seminal projects from the past twenty years including a special adaptation of Transnacionala <\/em><\/strong>(1996), an interactive installation enabling participants to become NSK citizens and have their own passports created. Also on display is Kapital <\/em><\/strong>(1991), a site-specific installation that mixes taxidermy with religious icons, appropriating and recycling the symbols of past totalitarian governments and utopian art movements.<\/p>\n

The programme will focus on placing the work of IRWIN in a socio-political, ideological and cultural context, while also offering an overview of their artistic practice. The workshop will address the notion of historicising both in the context of IRWIN’s work and from the wider perspective of its implications for art historical and curatorial practices.<\/p>\n More:<\/p>\n In collaboration with the History of Art Department, University College London<\/em><\/p>\n Lecture of Saša Nabergoj on the symposium:<\/strong> Symposium – East Art Map: History is Not Given.

It will involve an afternoon of presentations from established speakers and postgraduate researchers engaging with issues surrounding IRWIN’s practice, EAM, archival tendencies in Eastern European art, and the legacies of these practices today (with specialists exploring the legacies of the project in relation to artistic and curatorial practice, art institutions and the writing of art history).<\/p>\n WORLD OF ART School for Curators and Critics of Contemporary Art Season 14 1st Year (November 2011\u2013June 2012) Workshop: Friday, June 1, 2012, Calvert 22, London Lecture: Saturday, June 2, 2012, University College London TIME FOR A NEW STATE is part of a London wide presentation of Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK) in cooperation with Tate, […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5392,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-season-14"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/946","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=946"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/946\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5393,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/946\/revisions\/5393"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5392"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Irwin,](\"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/aktualno\/wp-content\/2011-13\/irwin-retroavantgarde.jpg\")
