Futura PR Part of the New Art Movement

01 June 2009

With a group of established artists Futura PR in 2009 has initiated recessionism – new art movement that is responding to the economic crisis by searching new through the art. Within recessionism, Futura PR is a collective corporate artist. A selection of recession artworks will be exhibited from June 12-15 in the City Museum of Ljubljana.

The exhibition will represent also artworks of all artists who joined recessionism: Zora Stančič, Michael Benson, Vuk Ćosić, Bojan Gorišek, Matevž Medja, Silvester Plotajs Sicoe, Matej Andraž Vogrinčič and EnKnapGroup.

Recessionists believe there is no other short-term way out of recession than through the creation of new. Their work depicts the state of mind during the economic recession. There is a lack of tangible, but there is always a thought remaining. Recessionists' artworks are creating an undefined space for the audience to enter as partner in creating the artwork. Led by his imagination and necessary optimism, the viewer adds his experience of the new world. For the artwork to be fulfilled, there are needed both, the artist and the active viewer as his complement.

You are cordially invited to visit the exhibition.
