MMSU Rijeka Risk Change Open Call for artworks

The Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art Rijeka announces an
OPEN CALL for artworks
for *We’re not Like Them* exhibition, which is to be held as the fourth episode of the EU project RISK CHANGE
MMSU, Rijeka, 26 September to 10 November 2019

Cordial or cold? Two-faced and fanatic? Pacific or aggressive? In the final episode of RISK CHANGE, we deal with prejudices with which we construct the picture about others, but we also address the question of how others see us. On the intersection of contemporary art, anthropology and social psychology, we examine an unusual glossary containing the terminology of ‘the other’ – a neighbor, a stranger, a newcomer.
