| Boris Missirkov, Georgi Bogdanov | The Saints of Giudecca
May-June 2003 inkjet prints, gilded and mounted under transparent plexiglass 45 x 60 x1.4 cm |
Boris Missirkrov and Georgi Bogdanov. Italy is a land of saints and strongly connotes religious devotion. The topography of Venice itself is also connoted by religion. Giudecca is considered the island of communists and of the proletariat. The artists want to make portraits of local "saints" that are all retired fishermen, amateur football players, etc.. It will take the form of interviews and photographs. In addition, they will exhibit a series of photographs that document the state of the Biennial pavilions while they were still closed to the public. Boris Missirkov has been the agit prop of the Radar Living project, photographing and designing the billboards.
