Everybody Is Talking

Everybody Is Talking is a work that deals with the institutional history of ULUS (Association of Fine Artists of Serbia), i.e., the actual significance of this complex and endless network: of artists, art practices, art policies and strategies for maintaining the symbolic and social status of artists; a network that is unimaginable and inaccessible to the community, which – with not much enthusiasm – continues to provide funds for the status of a freelance artist.

Everyone Is Talking is a joint work of ULUS members. All members are invited to create, in the medium of the video installation, a utopian space of equal opportunities and the right to present their art and their views on art.

Namely, all ULUS members were invited to come to the premises of their art association – Cvijeta Zuzorić Pavilion – within a period of twelve days and, at the recording setting, in front of camera, express their views on art, that is, create a space of equality for everyone.
