This Art Book is published in conjunction with the exhibition “Subversion to Red” at the Pavilion of the Republic of North Macedonia at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019. This major solo exhibition by Nada Prlja is a research‑based project which aims to define alternative forms of socio‑political formations by revisiting concepts of Marxist theory and aspects of Modernism, while enabling a subversion of both the harsh nature of capitalism and the rigidity of socialist times. The project employs artistic and non‑artistic methodologies, including a performance‑based debate (featuring key political theorists) and installations which redefine a number of socialist‑era artworks. “Subversion to Red” offers the potential for both the direct and indirect impact of art on the social processes by introducing idealism and ideology as renewed forms of motivation in society.
