Curator from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade, Una Popović, will held the presentation of the project It Happened Tomorrow, first part of the cooperation between the Zachęta Project Room in Warsaw and Salon Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade. The exhibition  It Happened Tomorrow  had an aim to represent an art fiction, a possible illogical deviation within an event, i.e. a fiction with basically realistic narration and appearance, as stressed in the linguistic syntax of the title itself. Alongside the works of the Polish artists that were represented in this exhibition  (Agnieszka Polska, Karolina Breguła, Jacek Malinowski) to a great extent productive in the medium of film and involved in complex artistic works that could be described also as multi-tiered orchestrations of diverse elements and meanings and a Isreali artist based in Berlin, Assaf Gruber, this exhibition spotlight the well known older local author Dušan Otašević, with the objects from his series on the fictional character Ilija Dimić. 

Beside the presentation of the theme and exhibition, also practice working with Polish artist on this topic, Una Popović will made a short notice about the contemporary art scene from Serbia, but through the program that she curate, in one of the most prestigious exhibiting space in Belgrade,  Salon of the Museum of Contemporary Art.

    Ponovo upotrebiti: past as costume or inspiration

    Works presented in the exhibition re-use artifacts from recent history (architecture, photography, media images documenting political and social events, film, music). Some authors treat them as a stage on which they develop completely new ideas, the others refer more to the stories, that inspired them.
