Obsežni mednarodni razstavni projekt z naslovom Konec novega je zasnovala videmska kulturna organizacija Neo, da bi obeležila dvajsetletnico svojega delovanja. Razstava z istim naslovom bo v različnih oblikah in postavitvah gostovala v več italijanskih mestih ter Ljubljani in Zagrebu v obdobju 2016-2017.
Jeseni bo izšel razstavni katalog na 600 straneh. Partnerji iz Italije, Slovenije in Hrvaške bodo gostili 16 razstav, na katerih bo sodelovalo 85 umetnic in umetnikov.

“The artworks pull the spectators into a theatre to attend a tragedy, experience it from a distance and contemplate the relations, patterns and stereotypes in real life. They are meant to break the hypnosis of everyday life ruled by the function of media, the means of communication and the economic and political relations. Without a hint of superiority towards the audience these artworks could act as simple old magic for staying sane. Some would call them activist, I prefer active.”

Citat iz besedila This art is active (Ta umetnost je aktivna), ki ga je o mojem delu napisal Vasja Nagy.
Besedilo bo izšlo v katalogu projekta La fine del Nuovo / The End of the New in autumn 2016.
