Photograph by Ljiljana Maletin Vojvodić
Dragan Vojvodić carried a black square painting in the city center of Bergen, Norway to question the meaning and legacy of Kazimir Malevich’s revolutionary, abstract painting Black Square (1915). In each photograph, Vojvodić replaces the white background of Malevich’s painting with the cityscape. The city became a part of the image, and the same time, the artist inserted art into everyday space and city life.
