What is the boiling point of language? Artist Maja Bajević has been studying and archiving political phrases, tracking their appearance and disappearance. The quantity and content of slogans from 1911 to the present indicates a kind of social temperature that changes as the speaker, the intent, and the receiver transforms over time.
Maja Bajević’s art has been presented at Documenta 12 (2007), the Venice and Istanbul Biennials (2003 and 2001 respectively), and Manifesta (2000). She has had solo exhibitions at Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid (2011); Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice (2008); Moderna Museet, Stockholm (2005); MoMA PS1, New York (2004).
