Meluzin

More about the book

Peter Meluzin's works respond to contemporary socio-cultural phenomena presented by the lens of everyday life. The creation of a visual artist, whether in the 1980s action art contributions or new media such as objects, installations and video works he began to create in the 1990s, reflects the impact of social reality on the individual and its consequences, communicated by the typical diction of an artist humor, irony, sarcasm, and a unique talent for creating visual and content paradoxes. The comprehensive monographic publication summarizes and analyzes his work in the core categories: he sees Mr Meluzin not only as an important pioneer of video exchanges, but also as an important organizer and author of events. It also introduces his action-conceptual realizations and introduces the reader to the artist's extensive portfolio of unrealized projects. It offers a view of more than three decades of the work of this prominent representative of Slovak contemporary art.
