Slowenische Kunst (NSK) Event Dublin, 2004

International Conference
Art and Politics: The Imagination of Opposition in Europe
April 29 - 30, 2004
With the Slovenian Society for Aesthetics and University College
Dublin.
How does 'art' intersect 'politics' either when all art is

| NOORDUNG: SUPREMAT - Attractor
Dragan Zivadinov

The Helix Theatre, DCU, Dublin 7
"Supremat is a new event in the series
of the "farewell rituals" performed by the actor
Dragan Zivadinov over the recent years. This time, his (sub)title
references are those of the Neue Slowenische Kunst and the
NSK. The title itself naturally alludes to Malevich's suprematism,
