New Needlepoint

New Needlepoint

The most luxurious reproductions of modern works

The realised New Needlepoint brings tapestries made after the motifs from the works of great artist, icons of the 20th century. These masterpieces are almost solely minimalist, geometrical, abstract works of Malevich, Mondrian, Fontana, Albers, On Kawara, Hirst – right down to the monochromatic canvas of Yves Klein, which entirely destroys all the joy of arranging threads, by means of which you get the illusions of a third dimension – figuration. After month of work on a tapestry, you do not get a crying boy, flowers or a pastoral scene but pure surfaces that are the most luxurious reproductions of modern works of art. The project has to do with positioning the art of the 20th century, especially contemporary art, within the framework of the broadest social circles. We have witnessed the incredible commercialization of that same contemporary art. If a Hirst enters your home through the most popular TV series, why not make a canvas of his – reproduce it and bring it into your home. If you can’t beat them, join them.
These masterpieces are ready for history, to find themselves on a New Needlepoint placing them within folklore, collective experience, inside the home of a Serbian head of family.
The tapestries before you have been made by artist's father. I wanted to have a Fontana canvas, so my dad made it for me. It took about 100.000 black stitches to make Malevich's square. One hundred thousand grains of wheat on a chessboard.

Novi goblen

Najluksuznije reprodukcije moderne umetnosti

Realizovani Novi goblen donosi izrađene goblene po motivima velikih umetnika, ikona dvadesetog veka. Tu su remek-dela gotovo isključivo minimalistična, geometrijska, apstraktna dela Maljeviča, Mondrijana, Fontane, Albersa, On Kavare, Hersta, Kristofera Vula - sve do monohromnog platna Iv Klajna, koje potpuno ruši svaki smisao veza, uništava svako zadovoljstvo slaganja konca pomoću koga dobijate iluziju treće dimenzije - figuracije. Višemesečnim radom na goblenu ne dobijate dečaka koji plače, cveće ili pastoralu, već čiste površine koje jesu najluksuznije reprodukcije modernog umetničkog dela. Projekat se bavi pozicioniranjem umetnosti dvadesetog veka, a pogotovo savremene umetnosti, u najširim društvenim krugovima. Svedoci smo neverovatne komercijalizacije iste te savremene umetnosti. Ukoliko vam Herst već ulazi u dom preko najpopularnije TV serije, zašto onda ne napravite njegovo platno - reprodukujte ga i unesite u svoj dom. Ukoliko ne možeš da ih pobediš, pridruži im se.
Ova remek-dela su spremna za istoriju, zrela su da se nađu na Novom Goblenu koji ih postavlja u folklor, u kolektivno iskustvo, u dom srpskog domaćina.
Goblene, koji su pred vama, realizovao je umetnikov otac. Želeo sam da imam Fontanino platno, pa mi ga je tata napravio. Oko 100000 crnih uboda za Maljevičev kvadrat. Sto hiljada zrna pšenice na šahovskoj tabli.
