<\/p>\nThe books is a result of a collaboration between custodians, critics, art historians, theoreticians and artists, which is indicative of the complexity and interdisciplinarity of Gotovac\u2019s work on film, performances, photography and painting during socialism, post-socialism, transition and the start of the global crisis.<\/p>\n
The book focuses on the critical, custodial and theoretical levels of presenting and interpreting Gotovac\u2019s life and work. It aims to showcase his artistic career as the anticipation of contemporary artistic, cultural and social changes from the stability of the 1960s to the contemporary society facing a global and European crisis. That is how Tomislav Gotovac can be presented from a historic and anticipatory perspective.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The texts are organised in four units. The first unit is Memory: Power of the Artist, focusing on individual memories about Tomislav Gotovac through a historicisation of his work in the context of Croatian and international neo-avantgarde. The second unit is Film: Experimental and\/or Anti-Film, presenting research on Gotovac\u2019s original work on film, in a hybrid field of fascination with American film, experimental film and anti-film. The third unit: In Between: Tactical Postmedia, follows the development of Gotovac\u2019s artistic work in the space in between different media and artistic practices such as collage, interventions, performances and appropriation. The final unit, Reconstructed Subject: World Image Conspiracy presents the affective nature of Gotovac\u2019s life and artistic work, from a completely intimate act to the mythologisation of his own life and human existence in a world of hidden and revealed political, sexual and artistic conspiracies.<\/p>\n
The book presentation is going to include discussions on Tomislav Gotovac\u2019s art, memories about him and his worlds, the nature of experimental film and antifilm, tactical postmedia within the scope of different disciplines in art, as well as the reconstruction of Gotovac\u2019s conspiracy-oriented worldviews.<\/p>\n
