Nebojša Šerić Šoba apstrakcije | abstractions NARODNI MUZEJ CRNE GORE ATELJE DADO Kada sam uzeo papirnu novčanicu od jednog dolara i stavio je pod mikroskop sve je odjednom postalo apstraktno. Svaka scena je postala zasebna cjelina koja se mogla izdvojiti iz “pejsaža” koji se pomjeranjem novčanice smjenjivao. Različite magnifikacije mikroskopa su davale različite teksture i boje, mikrokosmos nečega što je po svojoj prirodi apstraktno (novac) ali ipak realno u svojoj fizičkoj prisutnosti i značenju. Novac ima svoju estetsku vrijednost, različite novčanice prikazuju identitete država iz kojih dolaze, na njima najčešće vidimo lica, gradove, biljke i životinje. Svaka novčanica ima svoj pređeni put, prljavštinu, koroziju, i bez obzira na stanje u kojem se nalazi i dalje zadržava svoju suštinu i upotrebnu vrijednost. Novac, čija se apstrakna vrijednost (koja je inicijalno bila bazirana na protuvrijednosti u zlatu) mijenja sa turbulencijama svjetskih berzi, je svakodnevna doza apstrakcije/realnosti u kojoj živimo. Zagledajući dublje u njegovu strukturu pojavljuje se apsurd koji samo umjetnost može opravdati… Nebojša Šerić Šoba I placed a dollar bill under a microscope and, suddenly, saw this common object – this flat piece of paper which is used every day, passing from hand to wallet in a continuous cycle many hundreds of times each day before reaching my own pocket – turn into something abstract. Every position under the lens creates a separate vision extracted from the object’s overall landscape, constantly shifting with even the slightest movement, as if it were a living, breathing thing. Different magnifications create different textures and colors, each view a microcosm of the overall object; not only abstract and absurd (how can a small piece of paper or metal represent such power and wealth) but also realistic in that it physically exists and carries such significance and weight. Arguably, money has its aesthetic appeal: banknotes and coins often show detailed images, of their countries, faces of their leaders, native plants and animals. Yet every banknote and coin has its own story, told by the dirt, corrosion, and bacteria it collects in its travels, at the same time retaining its original value. Money (which was originally based on the equivalent in gold) changes every day with the turbulence of world stock markets. A deeper look into Money’s tangible properties appears absurd in ways that only art can justify. Nebojsa Seric Shoba Nebojša Šerić - Šoba je rođen u Sarajevu 1968.
