Adrijana Gvozdenovic, Denis Maksimov. "Superficial Aesthetics", installation, the HAL, Antwerp (BE), 2015

One year before meeting each other in Belgium, Denis Maksimov and Adrijana Gvozdenovic both visited Estonian Pavilion at the 55th Venice Biennale Arte and took with them one copy of Denes Farkas white books, which themselves were the part of the larger installation. Maksimov chose the book with the title “Aesthetics” and Gvozdenovic picked up “Superficial”. Both had taken the books in order to use them for intervention of their own. Maksimov has used the book for creation of hand-written summary of re-approach of “aesthetics” in philosophy and theory, Gvozdenovic printed in the book dimensions of understanding of the contextualisation of “superficiality”. Installation “Superficial Aesthetics” acts as materialisation of seemingly impossible, but omnipresent connection between people: the magic moment when logic and intuition are becoming one. 

2 books, 14 prints of the insides. The installation was presented at the group exhibition “Love Will Tear Us Apart” at the HAL, Antwerp, Belgium in February 2015.
