A filmic glimpse into the making of the exhibition at Muzeum Susch
The teaser introduces the exhibition through brief, carefully chosen moments.
Rather than summarising the work, it offers partial views — of the installation process, the exhibition spaces, and the material presence of the artworks.By combining glimpses behind the scenes with fragments from the exhibition, the teaser creates an entry point that is deliberately open. It invites viewers to form their own expectations and to encounter the exhibition directly, without prior explanation.
Full Exhibition Documentation
The film offers a focused look at Perfusion, the exhibition dedicated to the Croatian artist Edita Schubert at Muzeum Susch.
Guided by curator David Crowley, it follows the exhibition through its spaces and works, while situating Schubert’s practice within its artistic, material, and historical contexts. Rather than presenting a chronological biography, the film highlights the major shifts that define her work across three decades.
From early hyperrealist painting to conceptual systems, works with natural materials, and later large-scale canvases, the film shows how Schubert repeatedly changed her visual language while maintaining a consistent artistic position. Themes such as repetition, obstruction, and thresholds recur throughout the exhibition and are examined through close observation of the works.
Crowley’s commentary provides context for Schubert’s international visibility in the 1980s and the political conditions of late Yugoslavia, without reducing the work to historical illustration. The film also addresses Schubert’s late, autobiographical works, in which questions of memory, identity, and visibility become central.
The film supports the exhibition by offering viewers a clear point of entry into Schubert’s practice and by contributing to the broader recognition of an artist whose work remains underrepresented beyond her regional context.
