The artist duo Doplgenger are participating in two exhibitions that are continents apart yet tied together thematically by their desire to address the influence that political and economic forces have on the well-being of the social body. In the exhibition at the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Belgrade, which is dedicated to the life and works of the Serbian artist Djordje Andrejević-Kun, Doplgenger has pieced together archival footage that documents his life and artistic career, conveying the audiovisual sensations that were formative in creating Kun’s aesthetic outlook. The exhibition is on view through September 8, 2024.
The other exhibition, titled “Power Plays”, revolves around the sports film genre, focusing more specifically on the forces which serve as the driving engine for the global sports media complex. The Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh has assembled seven artists who each provide a glimpse into this fascinating world through their own unique approach. Doplgenger is showing Fragments Untitled #6, a short which dissects the politics and media perception of a football match that was to be played in Zagreb in 1990.
