KUNSTMUSEUM LIECHTENSTEIN FEBRUARY 10-MAY 6 * CURATED BY CHRISTIANE
MEYER - STOLL * The output of this Belgrade - born, Berlin - based
artist can appear by turns massive and delicate, highly political and
exclusively aesthetic, serious and absurd. Such complexity is an active
component of SarZevies practice. After all, this is the artist who gave
us a wilderness survival guide written in phonetic English, to reflect a
thick Eastern European accent, and who republished a report on Balkan -
EU geopolitical relations and called it an exhibition catalogue. Now,
for his first large-scale museum exhibition, Sarcevic will occupy the
entire upper floor (four thousand square feet) of the Kunstmuseum
Liechtenstein with a selection of fifteen pieces made in the past four
years. Among the lot will be the work At Present, 2011, which sets forth
nine questions. Question two may be particularly germane: "Why is
every attempt at criticizing society simply disarmed and
discredited?"
