(…) “Uljanik is a brother.

Once you get a job and experience all aspects of working in a collective – everyday, persistent and productive (within the limits of your abilities) you do not need much to realize that your best intentions and efforts do not differ in the slightest from those of your colleagues in any other collective.

In positive things we are all equal, and in negative things we turn into completely different monsters – depending on our imagination, the quality of stomach acid, and the level of moral numbness.

Uljanik is a brother who was killed by monsters.

Unfortunately, he is not the only one, and there are plenty of mortally wounded – unaware of their terminal condition, they walk through Pula like an army of zombies in an invisible apocalypse.

They are not dangerous, but if you look a little closer, they will break your heart.”

From the preface, written by Boris Vincek

Preface

 

ABOUT THE ARTIST

performer, visual artist, musician. He has been known to the alternative cultural scene since the beginning of the seventies when he entered the conceptual and performance circle. At that time he created ‘mental spirit music’ with friends, and under the influence of Beuys, he opened processes for creating so-called ‘social sculpture’, with which he begins to belong a small group of conceptual artists who engaged in questioning socialist value systems, primarily the meaning of work and the position of workers.

           i.j.PINO’s position outside the center and his experience as a worker at the Uljanik shipyard secured him the ‘right’ to further radicalization in the field of art. During the eighties, he realized his artistic interests by combining the media of music, performance, and fine arts (alter rock group GustapH y njegovi dobry duhovi, and since the nineties, the public knows him as one of the most provocative Croatian performers, but also as an alternative new media experimenter (telephone concert Netz/Mreža, for Radio ORF).
