BATTLEFIELDS A Solo Exhibition by NEBOJSA SERIC-SHOBA Ends April 25th
by BWW News Desk - Apr 25, 2010


The Dumbo Arts Center (DAC) will end its showing of Battlefields, an exhibition of photographic works by New York based artist, Nebojša Šeri?-Shoba on April 25th. Taken over a 10 year period (from 1999 to 2009), the featured works, documentations of actual battlefields, call into question the autonomy of "place": the disparity that exists between historical events and the geographic locations in which they occur. Apart from the occasional historic marker or didactic memorial plaque, little visual evidence remains to distinguish one site from another, a disconnect that evokes the transient nature of history, the arbitrary lines of the battlefield and the universality of the theaters of war.
