Dimitrijević, Braco - Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb

Braco Dimitrijević: A Retrospective
presents (27.04.2017 - 21.06.2017) all the most important phases of the work of this pioneer of conceptual art, who has built an outstanding international career from the end of the 1960s to date. The work of Braco Dimitrijević and his 1976 invention of the term Post History were an important influence on two major tendencies in the contemporary art discourse, from critical practices in public space to interventions in museum collections. The constant preoccupations of his work – the relativity of history in general and of the history of art in particular, as well as the phenomenon of chance – are represented in this exhibition with both his early works and new works created especially for this occasion.


>> Braco Dimitrijević * 1948 Sarajevo

is one of the pioneers of international conceptual art. His Casual passer-by works and his coinage of the concept of Post History in 1976 directly influenced two leading tendencies in the contemporary art discourse, from critical practices in public space to interventions in museum collections.
