The phenomenon of suffocation of public space by intensely communicated content defines contemporary society, together with the ways in which the very society treats this phenomenon. The precarization of the system is in full force; even those more successful, if they are attempting to preserve full moral integrity, enter exceedingly disadvantageous relations of invested labour, free time and financial compensation.<\/p>\n
“Heroic<\/span> exhaustion”<\/span> is partly an auto-ironic construct of the protagonist of artistic scene which refers not only to the physical and mental exhaustion<\/span> of those included, but also to the exhaustion<\/span> of ways and spaces which are used for greater visibility of artistic activity. An intensive struggle for public space is being fought, both for physical spaces or locations of still existing cultural magazines and papers, as well as for the space for transferring messages and competing for the attention of the audience whose concentration is growing weaker. By analysing approaches to communicating the desired message, the exhibition presents artistic positions of different critical intensities directed towards the system they are a part of. The key element is the control over personal freedom of agency which is endangered by the general precarization of employment. By exhibiting various methods of artistic work, we are influencing not only the interpretation of the notion of heroic<\/span> exhaustion<\/span> which becomes ironic, but also an accommodating description of current state of a generation imprisoned within inevitable changes of social and economic relations.<\/p>\n Exhibiting artists are Kajs<\/strong>a<\/strong> Dahlberg, Katerina Duda, Maja \u010cule, Mihael Giba <\/strong>and Hrvoje Hir\u0161l,<\/strong> and the curator is Martina Konto\u0161i\u0107.<\/strong><\/p>\n Supported by: The exhibition is a part of the collaborative project This Is Tomorrow<\/em>.
