To the memory of the victims, for us and our future - BIENNIAL OF WORKS ON PAPER
| 18 June 2010
TO THE MEMORY OF THE VICTIMS, FOR US AND OUR FUTURE
As in any form of a conflict which is, unfortunately, inseparable part of the human destiny and the total being, there is one side which is oppressive and the other that suffers, thus the purpose of this Biennial is to attempt to open new questions concerning the problem of the aggressor and the victim in this globalized and alienated world. Such vocabulary and such relationships are all around us. It is not important any more whether it is happening in Europe, America, Asia or Africa.
There is a worldwide general mobilization of its resources where conflicts do not have to be manifested through military activities or physical oppression. The aggression of the contemporary age is economic, political and cultural. The forms of oppression are much more subtle so that the victim we are talking about is suffering in many ways. Do we need this kind of aggression and is there a way in which we can fight this problem is the question this Biennial is trying to answer.
Perhaps we would fail to find and offer answers to these questions, but we will certainly open this questions and alert on any form of aggression that we recognize.
