Montenegrin Beauty
Contemporary Art from Montenegro
12 Perspectives
Within the framework of the "First Cultural Festival of Serbia and Montenegro" in Germany 2005, the Künstlerhaus Bethanien is presenting the group exhibition "Montenegrin Beauty", contemporary art from Montenegro. Twelve artists from Montenegro will display numerous works dealing with a cliché that is ubiquitous in their homeland: the beauty of the country, its natural abundance and the opulence of the history of its civilisation. This beauty is seen to be God-given, and hence irrevocable. The artists, born between 1950 and 1976, confront the omnipresence of this almost mystical glorification with their artistic interventions, critically challenging clichés of this nature.
Mit Ozana Brkovic, Vesko Gagovic, Roman Ðuranovic, Irena Lagator, Jovan Mrvaljevic, Suzana Pajovic Zivkovic, Milija Pavicevic, Lazar Pejovic, Igor Rakcevic, Nikola Simanic, Jelena Tomaševic, Natalija Vujoševic.

25th November - 18th December 2005
Wed - Sun, 2 - 7 pm
