Artists
David Maljković (b. 1973) has studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb. Through his installations, sculptures, drawings, videos and photomontages, he explores the uncertainty of the collective memory in relation with the cultural, social and political heritage of former Yugoslavia.
Victor Man (b. 1974) lives in Berlin. His painting emerges from depths of culture where the eye isn’t enough for catching the poetic field and the psychoanalytical profoundness through which our entire spiritual legacy advances and deposits. Painting is in his case “a perfected spiritual tool” (Bogdan Ghiu) which continuously returns to the original moment of visuality as a cognitive mode.

Nita Mocanu (b. 1977) is a visual artist whose works are a combination between video art, performance video, text and photography. She builds her works around the way in which people act in various situations (from small gestures to expansive actions, to not doing anything), or are influenced by language, by the perception of self, and by the way in which they represent the world in general to themselves, but also by other factors which go beyond human control/understanding.
