This
is the motto of a Baudelairean flaneur, treating every spatial/topographic
structure - however random and uncontrolled its functions may appear -
as a territorialized system of signs. Within this frame, even the most
ordinary and trivial phenomenon can be shown to be both sated with meaning
and woven into a net of semantic fluxes, always potentially leading towards
the realm of discourses which are different and unexpected. Belgrades
'wild' flea market - which was for an entire decade celebrated by the
local artists as the heterotopic place, out of the range of technologies
of predictability and control - fully follow that motto. The images focus
on framing isolated fragments of the site, mainly groups of various objects
found lying around. They attempt to visually pinpoint some particular
logic of contingent plurality as the structuring operative principle and
in a range of various cultural, economic, demographic, sociological, ecological
and political contexts from the micro to the macro level.
