Vladimir Sekulić, through a series of drawings “The Boy in Red Vest“, deals with the media (re) presentation of the 2012 event, when the stolen image of Paul Cezanne was found in Serbia. Namely, at the convening of a press conference held in the Government of the Republic of Serbia, which was broadcast in the media, the author, besides the Ministry of Police’s speech, attracted the attention of members of the criminal police who surrounded the stolen art on both sides of the painting with head gals and automatic rifles . The exhibition reconstructs a bizarre event that Sekulić shaped into a satirical display, which he conducted through a series of drawings of large and small formats. In the reinterpretation of the police with ghosts and guns, which is a motive in all of his works, the artist presented this event through his personal stance through several drawings naturally displaced from the real situation. In addition to the reconstruction of Sezan’s painting in one drawing, on the other, between the two policemen drew Marina Abramovic and Ulaja, a concrete mixer, a black circle, a board and a washing iron, a flower pot … In this way, he reassessed the importance of the act itself, theatralization within public discourse. During the exhibition, Vladimir Sekulić will hold a guided tour with the curator of the exhibition, where he will present his work to the visitors.
